Sep. 4th, 2005 11:49 amMeh.... I'm not going to tag people, but 6 of you should do this:
List 3 things that bug you - things that others may find trivial. Then tag 6 of your friends. Only list 3 things because you may/can be tagged again.
1. When people try to bargain in a store, or when they take great pleasure in writing off expenses for a business that aren't related to the business.
2. When people wheel the shopping cart home with them from the grocery store and leave it in random places around my apartment building. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bloobert will remember that one!!!!) Sometimes these shopping carts have come from stores very far away. They are not homing pigeons, they don't go home by themselves. They need help.
3. When people write "everyday" when they should write "every day." "Everyday" describes something specific, it's a pronoun, like "everyday clothes" whereas "every day" is like "I go there every day." "Runaway" is like that too. A "runaway train," but a dog hasn't "runaway," it has "run away," "away" is an adverb. People do this all the time at work and it drives me mental, and doesn't seem to be in the journalism style guide.
