What REALLY bothers me is that dreamt is the only word in the English language that ends with "mt".
Also it really bothers me when people use "well, like, yaknow" excessively. It's really stinking annoying.

Semicolon
Use a semicolon to join 2 independent clauses when the second clause restates the first or when the two clauses are of equal emphasis.
Road construction in Dallas has hindered travel around town; streets have become covered with bulldozers, trucks, and cones.
Use a semicolon to join 2 independent clauses when the second clause begins with a conjunctive adverb (however, therefore, moreover, furthermore, thus, meanwhile, nonetheless, otherwise) or a transition (in fact, for example, that is, for instance, in addition, in other words, on the other hand, even so).
Terrorism in the United States has become a recent concern; in fact, the concern for America's safety has led to an awareness of global terrorism.
Use a semicolon to join elements of a series when individual items of the series already include commas.
Recent sites of the Olympic Games include Athens, Greece; Salt Lake City, Utah; Sydney, Australia; Nagano, Japan

To go off what Richard Nixon's Head said, I hate when people use filler word like umm and ahh. Like we're just going to leave them with their thumbs up their asses in the 2 seconds it takes for them to think of an answer.

There is nothing wrong with slang. It is like another dialect within the language, and it also gives a sense of community when people outside of your area don't understand the slang terms. One that I just learned (from Oakland) is cupcaking. Apparently, to cupcake is to hug and kiss someone publicly and intensely. Example sentence: Stop cupcaking!
Actually, that sentence doesn't show what the word means, but that would be how ti is used.

Capitalization is really annoying. PaRtLy BeCaUsE It SpAwNeD ThIs TeXt StYlE, but mainly because it is a useless addition to indicate a new sentence, when obviously sentences begin at their first letter.

Would I be right in saying:
The cat ran in front of my car; therefore I'm not sorry I killed your cat. Or would it be factual only?
The wind was blowing extremely strong yesterday; skirts went up all around the city.

*buzzer rings* FAIL. Knelt, felt, smelt, and belt. And also, adept, and wept.
Umn....I'm not quite sure shocko. Just looking at it I don't think so. I think you need to make the second clause restate the first one; in other words the first and second clause have the same emphasis. It's just like taking 2 sentences that can stand alone, and are restating the same thing and smooshing them together. Yes, I said "smooshing"

and it's instead of its.
and misspelling words.
and basically anything that's grammatically incorrect besides failure to capitalize.

What really bothers me (though it doesn't have anything to do with grammar) is when people make false inferences from studies or when people say something ridiculous like, "Look around at the 10 closest people to you, 4 of them have diabetes."

- When people types "your" instead of "you're" and the other way around.
- When someone types a "y" and mean to say "Why" (yes, I know it sounds the same in English, but it's completely different in Norwegian).
- "u" rather than "you".
I'll point out everyone's favorite: people, such as my electronics teacher, who say "irregardless".
one of them is irregardless
then she'll randomly just say "as we go though" in the middle of her thought, and we'll be like what the crap?
then she says "dont be laxidasical" as if trying to sound fancy, but she cant pronounce it correctly or use it in the right context.
she said "lets make sure we are parcipitory" one time, and i was thinking, why not just say "are participating"
i guess the moral of this is that i hate when people try to use big words but use them wrong, and if you correct them then they bite your head off (metaphorically of couse)

It's not annoying, but one of my teacher's favorite phrase is, "But we digress."
