My Pet Peeves - Things People Say

There are some things that people say that really drive me up the wall.  I'm here today to share those sayings, and hopefully influence you to stop saying them.  Of course, in reality, some of you will probably just say them more when you're around me just to drive me nuts.  Well, that's a risk I'm willing to take.

1. Starfish
This may sound silly, but THEY'RE NOT FISH!  I hate it when people refer to starfish.  The proper nomenclature is Sea Star.  I understand the need to call everything in the ocean a fish, but just stop it!  SEA STAR!  Learn it!

2. Muscle Memory
OK, let's get this straight, muscles don't have memories.  So stop referring to muscle memory.  It just doesn't exist, and frankly it sounds stupid.  Again, just stop it.

3. Could care less
If you "could care less" about something that means you do care.  If you want to show that you don't care about something the correct phrase is "couldn't care less".  Think about it.  It makes sense.  If you already care as less as possible then you couldn't care less than that.  If you could that would mean you exhibit some form of caring already.  So all you have to do is start using that extra contraction to show how little you care.

4. Funner
I know this is technically a word, but I hate it.  It just doesn't sound right.  In fact, I think it sounds stupid.  I prefer to use "more fun" when talking about something that is more fun than something else.  Funner just sounds ignorant to me.  But, again, I know it's a word so I can't hate people too much for using it.  But I will.

And then there's this:

Supposably?  Supposedly?  I know the difference, but do you?  This one actually makes me laugh more than it frustrates me.  I attribute that to Friends.

But what about you?  What phrases or things people say drive you bonkers?
