I hate, hate, hate it when people say libary. What the hell is a libary? Obviously they'd never been in one.

OMG, I hate irregardless!!! My old boss used to say that all the time and it drove me nuts.
I do judge people when they use incorrect grammar.
I think my biggest pet peeve is when people say "where is so-and-so at"? Why do they need to put the "at" at the end? It really annoys me.

Yes, I do. I think I hear "have went" a lot. There's a lot of misuse that I put up with, but I don't have the time or the inclination to explain it fully right now.

It doesn't bother me when other people do it, only in my own writing. One of my biggest peeves is when people say "you should of" instead of "you should have". I also get annoyed by "a whole nother story" and "I could care less".

What people are really trying to tell you is that you're a moron and a troll for spamming R&S with idiotic questions about your lack of understanding about German. Iss Scheisse und stirb richtig, Arschloch.

My biggest pet peeve is, "lol".
Why do people type that?
I know that it means "laugh out loud" but it really bugs me!!

I don't think it is right to judge people because of incorrect grammer. English might not be thier first languange.

You can correct them nicely ...

Yes if it is a professional letter or something, but if it is just yahoo answers or an instant messenger I don't care.

Only if it's really bad. When people type, they take shortcuts, but others just obviously have no clue.
