"Dindu nuffin" has to be the dumbest vernacular creation of the past 5 years.

Saying "Everybody doesn't do blah blah blah" when what is meant is "Not everyone does blah blah blah". Huge difference between the two.

Penultimate.

Such a pretentious and unnecessary word. Just say "second to last". Takes the same amount of time to verbalize, both are 4 syllables.

Also "can't have your cake and eat it too." Why the frick not? Why can't I eat the cake I have?

Had a black guy mock me once because I used the phrase “I saw” (example: I saw deer)

He repeated what I said with an exaggerated country accident (Implying I was an uneducated red neck, when I actually have no accent at all)

He actually believed the proper grammar was “I seen”

I was pissed. I went off and did my best to make him feel like a useless piece of garbage.

When people use “I” instead of “me” thinking it makes them sound more educated. In reality it just shows they don’t know the difference between the subject and object of a sentence.

Example:

The car belongs to my wife and I.

I wish people wouldn't use the word "Decimate". My reason is selfish. My husband always corrects them, even when they are in a TV show. Or on the radio. Or he's reading the word in a book.

I got it the first ten times. Enough.
