I want to hear about your pet peeves.

My first one:
The improper use of 's. Plural words do not need an apostrophe. My mother is the worst offender of this. "How are your cat's?" *shudder* She also puts 's at the end of most company names. *more shuddering*

Yes, I'm a snob. 😂

So I was using Google's to look this up, and was intrigued to find many instances of Home Depot's cats house's🙄😁
 
It’s the quarts we worry about
P’s and Q’s
What’s a pint ? I thought everyone but the US, Liberia and Myramar was on metric?

Oh.. pet peeve !? Why isn’t the US on metric! Jefferson wanted it!!
The Tommies use pints, it’s an imperial measurement after all. Us Paddies had to go along with what the Tommies did.

You Yankees have 2 pint measurements, a liquid one and a dry one. Jeepers. That’s my next pet peeve.
 
Threads asking what my pet peeves are...

😁

Misusing they're/their/there and affect/effect. I know it makes me sound like a snob, but is what it is. 🤷‍♂️
Silently correcting grammar? lol
 
How many of any other measurements in an acre? Furlongs??
Farmer stuff

Imperial units suck

Fellow countryfolk? How many ounces in a gallon? No cheating !!

Feet in mile?

Mph per knot at sea???

Peeves

How much does an ounce of water weigh ?
How big is it ??

The standard kilogram sent to (President?) Jefferson from France got lost in the mail
Recently found ! (Ok.., it was lost to actual pirates of the Caribbean https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo...the-caribbean-hijacked-americas-metric-system)

Now you know! We could have been like all you all

Could you care less? A bushel or a peck??

CAT’s… know better… oh.., sorry cats
Cats’ lives though?

I have a tee that says, "You had me at the proper use of you're."
