I don't know how many times I've seen ads where they call the trunk the "truck". I've seen it too many times to believe that it's a typo. Also, when someone says that their car has bucket seats and a "counsel". Especially when they actually pronounce it like that. Like some kind of hillbilly.
Anyways, some days I don't give a care. Other days it irks me.

I do remember Dizzy Dean. And one of the funniest baseball stories in history!

Absolutely pet peeve (have not seen it on these threads) would be the ebay genius that is selling a Stromberg 94.

On the Chevy pickup site that I am a member of (not saying which one...) they call Edelbrock AFB clones, "Eddy's", man that just sounds so squirrely to me Always someone posting a problem they have with them...makes me laugh every time...

Four pages so far and no one has brought up the worst one in my book, "I seen it"! I hear it more in actual conversation than see it in print but every time I do hear it I cringe.

Wanted ads in the regular forum sections.

And while I am on the subject, people that use "add" for ad, as in advertisment. "I have a fore sell add in the classifieds."

How about the first words "For sale" in an ad that is placed in a "For sale" section of any kind of advertising media, printed or otherwise? Ya think? Do we really need to know the item is "For sale" when placed in that section? Do the sellers think the buyers are that stupid? Idiots abound.

As for bad grammar, I don't care for it; but not much I can do about it, so I let it slide.
