This was inspired by another thread. What are things that are fact, proveable fact, that people always get wrong and drive you completely batshit?

here are a few for me:

A chimp, or an orangutan, or a gorilla is not a MONKEY. it is an ape. Does it have a tail? NO? Then it isnt a godamn monkey.

it is not a NIC card (network card). it is a NIC. NIC means Network Interface Card. So Nic card is Network Interface Card Card.

Same goes for PIN Number. Personal Identification Number Number...

To all the new englanders out there.... Sorry to Newb because i know i gave you shit about this in the past.. AND i know it is just a colloquialism, but... it is HAMBURGER not a fucking HAMBURG! God damn that drives me nuts for some reason...

I can hear The guy from the Bernie and Phil's commercials saying "Have a hamburg" in his godamn boston accent... Grrr....

I suppose that is my own little slice of prejudice. So sue me.

Anyway, enough of my hatin'. I suppose i should get over it. Ive been here 13 years and wont be leaving any time soon.

The drummer from Aerosmith burst into flames a few years back because he was filling his gastank with the car running. He is not exactly a low profile person and this was on the news for a while, so why the hell cant people get it into their thick skulls that filling your gas
A) with the car running or
B) while smoking

Could not only injure you but people around you?
You better believe that if i get burned because some asshole couldnt wait 3 minutes to have a smoke, i will sue his charred ass into the ground.
