I used to think it was a doggy dog world.

Okay, this is a great, great post! I love it because some of those things really push my buttons. Take #6, for example. That's right up there. Then #3 and #5 are tied. Hubby's pet peeve is #2. And everyone hates #1.

"Anyways, I must *axe you, where are you at? I'm ecscaping to the libary, and even though it's a doggy, dog world, I can see that you're trying to nip this in the butt. It's all going to be a mute point, and if you try **and conversate about the topic most people will just go nuculear on you unless you tell them there is no more TAXATION for them. Then we'll all be happy." 

*For Kabu. One she doesn't like.

**For me. It's "try to.." - NOT "try and..."

Re: I keep hearing people say, axe instead of ask.

Words change too much for me.
