Pet Peeve

[SpunGirl]

You hear the thoughts of so-and-so ... bla....

"Who's peaking?"

IT'S 'PEEKING.' Every fucking time someone says that I wonder if they're asking who's having an orgasm.

[Gridlock]

Dirty little mind

[longshot]

I just ate an once of 'shrooms...

I'm peaking... I'm booming...

[Artha]

I used to hate that question getting asked irregardless of spelling. If someone wanted you to know they were looking for you, they'd just ask you where you were.

[HarmNone]

That one always bugs me, too, Spun. Another that gets to me is "casted". There ain't no such word as "casted". Honest.

[Drew]

Haha right after I read this thread this happened:


Ralagar: "who is peaking?"

[Toxicvixen]

I love when they ask and expect an answer. Oh let me just use my detect magic spell and find out who cast it! :mad: What a stupid question.

Well, sometimes people do try to think to someone first, get no response then locate to get their attention.

Not everyone using locate is trying to be an annoying jackass.

[GSLady17]

I have people locate me all the time. Then they'll show up at my table or where I'm hunting. I don't mind it at all.

[Toxicvixen]

Its not the locate spell we are annoyed with its the saying "who's peeking" after it. I don't care who locates in a room or what have you, but I do hate when people ask questions that are silly.

When people say irregardless instead of regardless. Actually, doesn't really bother me, just in line with this thread.

It's hysterical when Paulie Walnuts on Sopranoes says it though.

There are alot of those, but that one that burns my gravy the most is:

Your crazy

It's real simple. If you're trying to say "You are" then use "You're", if you're talking about possession or owning, it's your.

-Misuse of commas; room painters in GS are notoriously bad with commas and sentence fragments. For some reason, my eyes are drawn to them. For instance, the first time I walked into the solhaven ticketting area for RR, I noticed that the room was poorly constructed from a grammatical stand.

It makes me feel a little better to be an ALAE QC'er. ...And no, as sad as it sounds, I'm not kidding.

It might mean they are on acid also.

[ElanthianSiren]

I also hate the auto punctuate function in the game now, as it turns every breath your character takes in conversation into a complete sentence.

I usually ask who seeks me...I don't like peek either.

Who's peaking?
