I thought this song was Comma Comedian. ha!
That's good to know. Funny thing, around my neighborhood and city I have spoken to two mothers walking down the street with their children shooting around a toy gun and told them very friendly what I thought of parents who buy toy guns for their kids and watch them practice shooting the world and especially their younger sister, for example. Both times the mother looked bewildered without reply and since then I have never seen another kid around my neighborhood doing the same. Good news travels fast in my parts...

Here's a pet peeve that I forgot I had until now. Saying "I go" and "He/She/It goes" when you mean, "I said" and "He/She/It said". Lady in the cube next to me is telling a very long story to someone on the phone. She is doing this and driving me crazy. I want to stand up and say to her, "Just F-ing Go Already!"

Haha! I used to do this a lot. Unfortunately, now I find myself saying "I was like..." instead of "I said...".

People that say "...know what I'm sayin'?" at the end of everything they are sayin'. I was watching some documentary-type show the other night which included an interview with a guy who did this. I had to change the channel it was so annoying.
I had a friend who appended every sentence with, "...and stuff." It was weird, and ultimately annoying.
I start almost every sentence with, "Anyway," or "Okay."
I've been guilty of the "...you know?" ending. I'll hear myself doing it and want to stop. I think I'm better about it now.
Whatever it takes to get going.I start almost every sentence with, "Anyway," or "Okay."
It's hard to break verbal tics. My son addresses everyone as "Dude" right now, and it gets randomly inserted into sentences. I remember doing that with "man", myself. It took my mom drawing my attention to it before I even noticed, and it was a very hard habit to break.
Okay, I get what you people are saying and stuff, but I go to a friend of mine, Dude you use too many commas, know what I'm sayin'?
