This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

Albert
I'm a geordie (save the stereotyping please). One of the nuances of my lovely accent is the pronunciation of "I" as "A".

"A'm going to the shop."
"A love quotation marks."
"A've got a first in economics"
"A'll tear ye a new arsehole, ye cunt."
Etc. Etc.

When we were younger (around 10 - 12) my brother developed a nauseating habit of overusing the affirmation "I'll bet". When it began to get really annoying, my dad would start to rip the piss about this Albert bloke. Why was he always referred to? Was he an imaginary friend? Has he touched your willy at school? It was so funny and effective that I copied the technique to cure my brother of a later expressive habit "A turned around and..."

I've since accepted my brother for who he is. In turn, he's never had a moments doubt that I'm an utter cunt.
