People from Illinois that fail to silence the ‘s’
People who actuate enlighted vocabulary to make oneself appear exquisite :puke:
Whites that speak black :wtf:
People who misuse words like “homophobe” (trust me fudgepackers, we are not afraid of you!) :gay:
Those who spit when they talk

My mistake, I see now that they’ve even managed to misspell gauge. There really isn’t any hope is there?

The word is used out of context, but it’s merely missing a space. The Lana Gauge is the scale by which all actresses should be ranked.
“Great job, that performance was totally Peyton Place!”
“Don’t kid yourself, it was barely Falcon Crest”.

On a more serious note, I hate misuse of i.e. and e.g. Particularly loathsome are those that use either in conversation. That’s right up there with my second favorite… air quotes.

You draw crowds at the nude beach, do you Rust?
