What Are You Waiting For?

What is your biggest pet peeve?

 Okay, this is a rant all on its own, I can go on about this for hours.  In fact, I did go on about it for a good half hour today at work.  I cannot stand people who use "u" in place of "you", or any other variation of such things. Secretaries I can understand; even a stenographer, but stenographers have a whole different language. Normal people, students, SERIOUSLY? You're saving a whole .29083094 seconds by writing it that way. Are you really wasting your life away by saying "you"? I mean, if you pay for texts, sure, I can understand it...but there really isn't any excuse for it. And don't dare tell me that you don't notice it. How can that not irritate you?!

Most people sit and ask me why it bothers me so much, it's not me doing it. Well, when you have to grade 320 essays, all of which contain "u no wat? I want 2 go 2 ur house l8r"...SERIOUSLY? When I was a Teacher's Assistant that was all I saw. And yet you sit here and complain that you have a GPA of 1.1, now you know why.  I'm not going to give you a passing grade if you can't spell. You're in HIGH SCHOOL, chatspeak became uncool in fourth grade. How can you honestly expect to get a job spelling like that? Do you spell like that on job applications? Really?

Of everything in the world...in the world that annoys me the most.
