The worst HAS to be: "That's where I am at"

I cringed just writing it.

Reminds me of the story of the man visiting a famous liberal university. He stopped a passing pony-tailed professor and asked “Can you tell me where the cafeteria is at?”

The professor sneered. “This is a prestigious academic institution. We do not finish our sentences with a preposition.”

The visitor nodded. “Okay,” he continued “can you tell me where the cafeteria is at, asshole?”

“... That’s where I am at”

One that drives me beyond nutty is “Where you at?” It is like fingers nails on a chalkboard!

Drop the “am I”...”That’s where I is”.

“That’s where I am at”

Consider this phrase raspberried. Nails on a chalkboard,

"That is where I am at."

It reminds me of a joke. This quiet, bashful Southern woman went to a party at Haaavaaaaard University. Some pompous women walked up to the woman and in a condescending way, said hello to her. The Southern belle ask, "Where are you'all from?" The Harvardite said, laughling, "We are from some place where we don't end our sentences in a preposition." The Southern lady spoke up and said, " I am so sorry. Where are you from,....... Bitch?"

Another one that drives me crazy is when people say "I could care less."

What they really should be saying is "I couldn't care less."
