Hey guys,

Does anyone you know have a speech or linguistic mannerism that drives you up the wall?

My mother has a habit of trailing off and either never finishing the sentence or leaving out chunks, like "There's a pile of newspapers by the door, so can you........?" or "We decided to eat out so.....fairly expensive".

Doesn't *really* bug me but it definitely flicks something in me...

How about you guys?

"So it's like...you know what I'm saying?"

Uh....NO!

Not really a pet peeve, but I totally know what you're referring to Belial!

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

Oh yeah, and my sister.

"Yeah, well...."

Well WHAT?

There's a new woman at work who is incredibly loud and perky which is bad enough but combined with finishing every sentence to sound like a question . . . I avoid her like the plague.

I seem to have an annoyihng speech trait that drives others up the wall. I tend to speak at the level I can hear, which means I tend to talk softly. My wife claims that my mother & I can have enitre conversations when we're in separate rooms that she (my wife) can't hear even being in the same room with us. Hmmmmmmm...

One thing that bugs me, and I hear it from several people, is the double use of is. "The thing is, is..." "The deal is, is..." It makes me cringe whenever I hear it.
