The infuriating rising inflections at the end of sentences that make everything sound like a question? - Steve Grant

Oh ... MY ... GOD ... that is like ... sooooo annoying! I hate thawt.

When the waitress plonks the plate in front of you and says, "there you go". Where do I go? Where's there? - Ken Clarke

I hate it when the restaurant wait person stops at the table to ask, "Are ya still working on that?" For heaven's sake, it's not a term paper. My fellow diners and I are not cows chewing the cud. Just ask, "Would you like me to remove any of these plates?", or something similar.

People that end most of their sentences with "... you know what I mean?" Drive me nuts!

Of course I know what you mean! I speak English and am 10 times smarter than you or anyone in your gene pool.
