For me, it's when people put an apostrophe where it doesn't belong like at the end of every word that happens to end with an S.
When restaurants mix up Ws and Ms. As you can see, Ws have angled lines whereas the M has straight lines.
When letters are replaced with numbers like "1337" or something or "sk8".
When an alternate letter is used in place of the proper letter like ez or boyz. _________________ Where has my heart gone?

When someone forgets to reset the timer on the microwave.
When people bother me when I want to be left alone.
When the phone rings 3 or more times in 30 minutes!! (That's probably my number 1)  _________________ The only thing stopping me from taking over the world is a lack of resources.

Same here! Makes me so mad! The funny thing is, it makes a ping noise when I reset it. That noise drives my mother absolutely mad! So she gets angry too  |

People who can't tell the difference between Washington and Washington DC. That's why there is "state" after Washington lol.
People who call Vancouver BC 'Vancouver.' Damn it go call Vancouver BC that when you're Canada, not here in Oregon or in Washington or people might get confused.
People calling a binder a "notebook."
People who can't spell Benny & Joon right. Damn it, look at the movie title, where does it say 'June.' That is directed at people who have seen the movie title.
My boyfriend calling our bathroom the 'restroom.' Damn it this isn't a public building, this is a residence. They're called bathrooms.
Spokaners who don't know their B&J locations but they give me the wrong locations anyway of where the B&J hospital is at. Damn it, if they don't know where it's at, then don't say anything or tell me you don't know. If someone tells me where the place is located at, say "I heard...." not 'It's at.......' It's really misleading. Why can't people talk right?
People who get a fact wrong but say it's their opinion.
People saying 'aspie' is an offensive word like the 'n' word. Damn it it's not, it was coined by an aspie damn it, not by a bigot. That word was never meant to be offensive so therefore, not an offensive word.
My boyfriend not putting his dishes in the dishwasher when it's unloaded. _________________ Aspergers, PDD-NOS, autistic, who cares what diagnoses I have, it's just a label. All on the spectrum. |

| The phone ringing. Certain voices and accents. It's ironic how I despise so much sound when I listen to musicians like Prurient at times... |

The city is actually just called 'Vancouver'. BC stands for British Columbia. British Columbia is the province in Canada which Vancouver is in.
You actually thought that the city Vancouver was called 'Vancouver BC'?  _________________ PM me if you want to talk/ask me something. |

| My number one thing that bothers me is people whistleing...even if they are good. People making clicking noises with thier mouths. Seeing things crooked or out of square that are not suppossed to be. people's exessive use of porch lights when they don't need them often because there is a street light nearby. People who water their lawns in the middle of the day..which is waste full of water on hotter days. It also causes thier lawns to get sunburned and they can't figure out why thier lawns don't look as good as they could. |

I hate it when people expect me to do things. Like, attend birthday parties, family dinners, etc... I usually go to these things, but, I hate it when I catch s**t because I don't feel like going. I try to explain, and I still end up being the jerk. Oh well, I guess that's life as an aspie.  _________________ Those who speak, don't know.

| Strangers who initiate conversations/touch you so they can make jokes that make no sense to me. I was standing in line at henrys minding my own business and this creepy old guy puts his hand on my shoulder puts his lips by my ears and starts whispering a joke in my ear. No me forgetting to put the divider thingey inbetween our groceries does not mean I'm going to pay for your stuff and It certainly is not permission to molesters me. Your lucky I did not break your friggin jaw or aim for the crotch. |

To me it's the little new abbreviations that pop up like QFT, FYI, BBL, G to G, ETC.
Although I do hate to write words out and would prefer a short way to say it, it's annoying when these quotes come out of nowhere as though I just came outta a cave. Don't use chatroom so that might have something to do with it. _________________ Oh you can't help that. We're all mad here.
