angst- usually the only time you hear it in english is when someone is trying to be cute and artistic (eg. "contemplating angst to the nth degree" is a line from a review of Sehnsucht that perfectly illustrates my point)
shoppen- a german word meaning "to shop" that I've heard a few exchange students use. it made me realise that I'm wasting my time learning to speak german because german is about to turn into a dialect of english.

Axe. As in "I want to axe you a question."
Hearing that is like fingernails down a chalkboard for me.

shoppen- a german word meaning "to shop" that I've heard a few exchange students use. it made me realise that I'm wasting my time learning to speak german because german is about to turn into a dialect of english. I would like to point out that English is heavily based on German. Oh and 'ass'. As in 'that girl has a nice ass'. An ass is a mule. And literally any number of phrases, because I'm a total language purist and grammar nazi. 'Ur', especially, is awful.

-pop my parents are from the east coast, so i always knew it as "soda" and not pop. the word makes me twitch.
-dangling prepositions people in the midwest are *notorious* for ending their sentences with prepositions. ie, "where's it at?" it makes my sphincter clench.

I rarely ever hear people call it pop. They usually call it soda. They also call it pepsi because the school board in my county had to sell out to the Pepsi company so now all the school campuses are littered with soda machines.

I rarely ever hear people call it pop. They usually call it soda. "pop" is almost entirely a midwest thing, methinks. depending on where most of you live you may not hear it as often as i do.

LOL! i read an interview with the drummer from the chili peppers many many years ago where he talked about some sick game they used to play that involved noses in gassy arse cracks... they refered to it as "cuddling." i have shared your hatred of that word since i read that.

I live in the northwest. and i hear pop all the time. now this is very far from midwest. in fact the midwest very much scares me. but apparently pop is not just a midwest word. I've never really thought about it till now.

I've never really thought about it till now. i never said it was exclusive, just mostly found in the midwest. just out of curiosity, why does the midwest scare you?

Err, i know some people from the midwest. and they are all very very conservative. and old fashioned It's just really strange. I have no idea if they are an example of the culture over there but if they are any indication i don't think i would last that long. Then again the northwest isn't much better really. Just different. ya, does that make any sense???

I don't really speak to her, as much as I sit here and mock her as she's right outside my door. I'd like to spare my IQ by THAT much.

THANK YOU. I fucking hate that. I had an Honors Latin Professor who beat proper grammar into my daily speech.... (unfortunately, it doesn't always work with my typing speech).

It's could have, contracted to could've, not fucking could of, which doesn't make any sort of fucking sense. Fucking kids these days man, text messaging is rotting people's brains.
