Nothing like hearing the phrase "thas mah baby daddy" to set my teeth on edge. I despise this phrase with a passion, and think it says much about society and the state of relationships and marriage (or lack thereof) these days.
George Carlin is one of my favorite comedians; in his comedy routine he often talks about his linguistic pet peeves:
"Best thing since sliced bread! Sliced bread?!! That's the pinnacle of human achievement?!! If aliens ever visit the planet, they're gonna leave cause the best thing we ever produced is sliced bread! What's so f---ing great about sliced bread anyway? You take a loaf of bread and a knife and you slice the f---ing thing!"
"Down the tubes -- hear that one a lot. People say, "Ah, the country is going down the tubes." What tubes? Have you seen any tubes? Where are these tubes? And where do they go? And how come there's more than one tube? It would seem to me, one country, one tube. But is every state all of a sudden have to have its own tube now? One tube is all you need. But a tube that big? Somebody would have seen it by now."
