ok, well this isn't the one I was thinking of, but it's another and it'll have to do for the time being...

when you write a word and it just doesn't look right

I had this happen recently with the word "inscrutable" - - even after I looked it up to verify the spelling, it still looked wrong...

another one - this is dedicated to the good Dr. Jones...

mispell - - misspell

It looks wrong no matter what!

but somehow, when you put it in the past tense, it looks OK

misspelled
 
Why do people on five lane roads stop for pedestrians crossing outside of crosswalks? I've had this happen to me 3 times now in two days. Who are these drivers who think someone walking casually will somehow end up in front of there 50 mph vehicle or needs them to stop so other cars won't hit them? Just gtfo, it's faster and less dangerous for both of us when I don't have to try and figure out what the hell your intentions are.
 
The loud and annoying orgy of coughing between two pieces of music in a symphony concert. I feel like choking them to death to keep it quiet and only musical.
 
There is no where to park in this entire ****ing country!
 
Hallways in Mormon churches. They are entirely too narrow when church gets out and everyone thinks they need to stop and talk. Even the few who think they are being courteous and moving to the side still block half the hall. Move along people!
 
0% micronutrient listings on nutritional labels. Most foods do offer micronutrients beyond what's listed, but they still would rather waste the valuable listing space telling you that they have 0% Vitamin A or Iron or whatever. Tell me what you have suckas, not what you don't have.

What kind of man has a problem with cats? Srs. This is something that 13-year old boys say when they're trying to sound tough.

A man who's wife and daughter love cats. They are loud, they are obnoxious, they are gross, they are mean. I can't think of a good thing a cat does outside of mousing. Seriously F cats.

I'm man enough to admit I've got cats. And I hate them.
 
People who pronounce the word "heighth" instead of "height". And yes, this is roughly 20-30% of all Utahns.
 
Gameface's tip thread made me remember another peeve of mine: when people beg for tips. My wife and I went to a dinner muder mystery on our anniversary. When it was over they flat out said "there is an envelope on your table. Please tip us." As if the $100 I spent for a mediocre dinner and okay play wasn't enough.

Then my guess would be that $100 is going to the owners and the actors are getting jack dick.

I have two cats (well, my wife does anyway) and I like them but would never choose to have cats if it were up to me.
They are ok but they is nothing great about them

I started putting their food outside so I didnt have to see their stupid faces. This backfired though, as now every cat in a 5 mile radius just lounges around my yard waiting to be fed. Their like ants. A little food left out and you're infested. We do have aPersian that I love, but its a pain in the *** maintaining such a beautiful creature.
 
People who write "their" instead of "they're". Or vice versa.

Or "your" instead of "you're". Or vice versa.
