Pet peeves... Annoyances... Things that piss you off!

[Matt]

Yeah, I don't like the way the answer key is set up, either.  The point system is weird, as is having to go to a whole 'nother page, and then you can't tell which specific ones you missed, etc. 

Question for Stormie:

May we English Geniuses Can us English Geniusii Is this something that would be appropriate to put on a resume?

You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go! 

I used to teach English. 

I missed hearty/hardy on beginner, paid/payed on intermediate, and I missed the all of the above (select a while) on the Expert.

I'm not sure about if it's appropriate for a resume, but I'm sure as heck putting it in my annual performance review. My face-to-face meeting with my director will probably go something like this, "Yes, I know I've been letting a lot of data errors squirt by lately, but if I may refer you to www.okcupid.com and it's corresponding answer key at http://shortredhead78.blogspot.com/, you'll see I'm more than qualified for this position. You see, according to this shortredhead person, I'm an English Genius."

Dammit, I'd hoped I'd do higher.

Minivans still piss me off. Having the kindergarten soccer team aboard does not entitle you to drive 10 mph below the speed limit in the left lane of the interstate.

Somehow that doesn't supprise me.

Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!
 

I get lots of practice, I've had three different term papers due in the last week. So I suppose that makes sense.

Wet towels on beds have always irritated me.

People who use the toilet and then don't flush.

Not using the trash can when it is w/in 5 feet of you.

People who call you a misbehaving whore in their signature line just because they can't get over the fact you once slept w/ their boyfriend- when they weren't even a couple.

Hey Starbee here.  Just made myself a member and am very new at this web stuff.  Wet towels are an annoying thing.  Why?  I just don't get the logic.  Someting that is for sure my altimate pet peeve is when there seems to be no right place for things.  I hate it when people just leave **** lying around. Just ******* put it away. Is it really that difficult.   

I hate going into a public bathroom and seeing someone elses **** in the toilet.  So digusting.   By the way can anyone tell me, how you get those cool looking charater photos?  Be patient with me, I'll need a lot of help.

[Mikey D]

****.  *******.

See, we can swear here (just turn off your swear filter).  No need to type "****" or "*******" (a pet peeve of mine by the way)

[Smartypants1635]

HMMM i did better, maybe paying attention in english is good.

You have a good understanding of intermediate and advanced commonly confused English words, getting at least 75% of the intermediate and advanced level questions correct. The puzzling part of your test result is the fact that you only answered 75% or less correct in the beginner section. Fascinating.

But whats weird i did bad in easy???!!?!
