When the volume on the tv is set to a number that isn’t prime

Hmm, I think we need to pick a Sonic because I can't stand it when the volume isn't on an even number



I thought I was the only one with these hang-ups.

The volume on a TV or car stereo should be set at an even number, but numbers that end in 5 are acceptable, too.

My wife will set the volume at numbers like 21 or 13 (!) and act like that’s not an abomination. I can’t stand it!

People say they feel nauseous when what they really mean is nauseated. Nauseous describes something causing nausea, and nauseated describes being affected by nausea.

People interchange suspect and suspicious in a similar manner.

I have an irrational hatred for water hoses and extension cords, specifically having to stretch them out. I also hate when people misuse I as a pronoun. For example, “Here’s a picture of Billy and I at the concert.” No, idiot. It’s me and Billy. Stop trying to sound smart when you’re going to slaughter grammar. Also, I hate when people say irregardless. I generally just hate bad grammar.

Overuse of the word so. For example.

Adulting: I absolutely can't stand people that use "adult" as a verb. Like "I've been adulting all day and just need a glass of wine!!!!!" I fricking hate that so, so much.

People who take forever to stop at a red light by slowing to a crawl for a hundred yards. Hurry up and stop so I can post on TD.

Overuse of acronyms. For example any thread about anything military, every poster who served starts writing in acronyms and expecting civilians to know what they mean.

Using “drops” to refer to an album release.

Yep, with the most vulgar lyrics they can find. I’m already trying to not be pissed about the $75 fill up, and a shiny Challenger pulls up blaring “frick this, bitch arse ho, smoke a fat Joe with my bro” or whatever the catchy little chorus that they want everyone to hear.

You have to keep an eye on people like this. There is usually something going on with them.

I get irrationally mad when someone puts the volume on 13. It's mostly in my car, but I don't like it anywhere. I'm not really superstitious either, but I guess I am a little stitious.

And it sucks too because in my car 13 is like the perfect volume.

I'm with you on that, and I don't think we're special in that regard. But this one does bother me more than it should:

I see it all the time. I've come close so many times to correcting people on FB about it, but always decide not to press those buttons.
