Re: Off topic
Both of those things stand out to me and they're both annoying. But not as annoying as when someone incorrectly uses a reflexive pronoun in a timid and futile attempt to somehow sound less personal. "Is it for yourself?" is not a valid replacement for "Is it for you?" Oh, and while I'm ranting about what really grinds my gears, what is it with people saying "you" when they mean "I"? Such as someone describing a scary event in a vox pop on the local news: "And you were just like, really scared, and you were wondering what was going to happen next!" No, no I wasn't. You were. Idiot.
