People who use the word "addicting".
This word didn't even exist a few years ago, and then it got taken up by certain gaming sites - there's even one with it in the website title for christ's sake!

"Oh you should play this game, it's very addicting."

No.

It isn't.

Unless it's addicting you to it right this second then the word you're looking for is addictive. That is the adjective. "Addicting" would be the verb - if it even exists as a word, which is doubtful.

Do you say "he was very talkating?" "He felt very apprehensing?" "The artist was very creating?" No, you don't, because you'd sound like a twat.

"Addicting" is no exception. Stop using it.

Grrr.

AHA!
I have a game on the iThing App Store TM and lots of people keep leaving reviews saying that it's addicting.

I thought the world had gone mad.

I just couldn't make "contemplatating" work.
No matter hard I tried.
