I am a big ball of irrational hate
Yet I can't think of many specific examples that don't involve being a boring language pedant. Sod it:

I hate it when people ask to be served something by saying "can I get" when they mean "may I have". I mean, are they asking to fetch the coffee/sandwich themselves? Clearly not.

While on the subject: I hate coffee culture and the stupid specials ways you have to order coffee. I don't even drink the stuff. What I hate more is that it's starting to invade tea drinking. When I go to Costa and ask for a tea with skimmed milk I'd like to make it perfectly clear that I want skimmed milk as full fat in tea just tastes wrong and semi-skimmed isn't a default option! If you then serve me what you call a "skinny tea" I will kill you because there is no such fucking thing.

If you have ever ordered a skinny latte, I hope you get leprosy.

With you one the tea/coffe thing.
I should not be required to learn a whole new language just to order a cupper - and I don't care how tall or what-have-you it is. If you could make a decent cuppa I'd drink it whaever shape you served it in.

I have a dear friend
who orders soy decaf lattes. Everytime she does it I have to stare at her like she just shit on the table and apologise to the coffee maker.
