As someone who frequently operates a cash register, I'm begging you: don't put something in your mouth before you hand it to me. 
And don't lick your fingers and then touch something you're about to give me either.  Man, I hate that!


Holy crap I hate that.  And I hate wet money.  Or money covered in food or god knows what other stuff.

Going back to me bitching about my Art teacher:
I have mentioned it a little BUT GOD DAMMIT THE WAY SHE TALKS PISSES ME OFF.

"Archeologicals have thought that the mounds..."
"Historiers claim that the sculptures..."

Every now and then if you get things wrong that's fine. BUT THIS IS HOW SHE TALKS ALL THE TIME. She always uses words wrong or in an odd fashion.

What the hell is that stupid sound clip that plays when you visit ANY page?  Apparently by pointing out how intrusive and frankly just dumb this is, I am not helping the rescue and I'm just rude and don't know anything about what makes a good webpage.  If I was going to adopt a dog I wouldn't from our rescue because it's just TOO DUMB to visit any of the pages.

People ask "Why does that happen?" or "Why does it work that way?"

You explain.

They then disregard your entire explaination and ask "Yeah but why?"

So I occasionally listen to Coast to Coast AM, because it's so ridiculous that it becomes funny. The only radio station that broadcasts it from within the province was 940 Montreal, but it got shut down some weeks ago. (That station used to be English-language talk radio, then it became almost exclusively music, then it died.)

Now the only station that carries the program and that I can receive with a semblance of quality is some crazy right wing Fox News Radio-type bullshit and I've been waking up with Glenn Beck far too often than I would like. By which I mean it is a non-zero quantity. It's at least equally ridiculous but much less funny. Much, much less.

I should probably listen in through the internet, but my current setup makes that really impractical. Hmm. Maybe I should just do away with C2C altogether. It's not like it enriches my life or anything.

whenever someone types out a word, ending in a silent 'e', to make it long and just retypes the 'e' a bunch of times.

Examples:

...that occurred to me as the chief problem with the game: “lots of stuff” masquerading as “sophistication”.

Yeahh, this doesn't sound too great.

Oh well next timeeee  :shrug:

I always thought that those got stretched out because of the overloading of many characters. Even though the "c" in "nice" doesn't translate to a stopping sound, because "c"s can translate into stopping sounds (e.g. in "cat") it's unintuitive to extend the "c"...

Then again, I'm probably talking out of my ass, because I'm certain I've seen people write "cccccccccccat" before.

Alternatively, they could be shootin' for some middle english. Shoppeeeeeeeeeeee.

Who actually drags out the sibilant, though?  It's always niiiiiiiice.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

I've heard "niccccce" spoken and I must agree that it looks better as "niceeeee." There's no excuse for "signaturrreeee" or "timeeee," though, as there should usually be a space before the "e"s to indicate a squeal.

It could also be that we don't want to confuse readers.
timmmmmmmme
timeeeeeeeeee

I imagine someone might want to read the first example as "tim" or something. Of course, why you wouldn't just use "tiiiiiiiime" is a mystery.

Microsoft Word's grammar check insists that "[name] and I" is wrong and that "[name] and me" is correct.

When you're the object of a verb, then it is correct.
