One that I haven't seen mentioned yet but always gets under my skin
...adult women who think it makes them cute, somehow, to use baby talk.

My ex wife used to do this, no matter how often I asked her not to. It wasn't "spaghetti", it was "sketty". They weren't "sandwiches", they were "sammiches". And so on.

No, it is not cute. No, it is not funny. In fact, it makes me want to give you a full-arm bitchslap. As I am a reasonably civilized person I never did it, but the temptation was enormous.

And grown up women who have loads and loads of soft toys.
Ok the odd one is fine but when you've got a load of them on your bed or even worse in the back of your car it's time to let go and realise that your an adult.

Also, women who talk with a little baby voice
especially if they they just use it on men.

Quite offputting.

*sigh* Yeah, I know.
She did it a little when we were first together, then stopped when I calmly explained that I didn't like it. But then it restarted when we had children, and she STILL does it.

Coming from a 45 year old woman with a fake tan, frosted hair and scowl lines, it's beyond revolting.

And another one
My ex did this. It made me wince. Her childlike nature turned out to be garden variety childishness.

How stupid do I feel, eh?

"Pop"
"Can you pop the kettle on?"

No I can't. Ask me properly, you demented soul-stealing witch.

Lellow
It's pronounce YELLOW!

Even writing that down was quite therapeutic, but the next time I hear it said, I will scream.

I say 'sammich' because I think it is very funny.
I've never said sketty, though.
