Call me a grammar nazi, but my biggest pet peeve these days is when people use "less" when they mean "fewer." Seems like it's gotten worse lately.
Any others?

This has been done multiple times, and you will always get the same results. Choose a different topic if you're going for posts.
I think your just an elitist. First you make a thread about how stupid people are and then you do one about the improper use of grammer. And as tacos pointed out this has been used before so has the stupid poll except a different example a youtube video i think.
yeah, well a personal pet peeve, is why so many threads on The Escapist insist on putting in a poll, when it's not really necessary. It shits me off no end, and I never even answer the actual poll, I just post on the thread.
Thanks heaps for not including a poll on this thread

No problem, except I sorta included a poll in my last one. Go me. xDJamminOz07 said:yeah, well a personal pet peeve, is why so many threads on The Escapist insist on putting in a poll, when it's not really necessary.

So apparently this topic has been done to death, and I forgot to use the search bar. Go me twice. (Dammit, it's not my fault, I'm tired! Well yeah, it *is* my fault...) Anyway, it's up, and I can't take it down. I guess just ignore it if you don't wanna participate, and try not to hate me too hard.
General grammar and spelling mistakes. Even though I'm a culprit of it sometimes too. It's just lazy.
And it especially pisses me off when people using text language purposely spell a word wrong that has exactly the same amount of letters in it as the correct spelling and they say its quicker to type. I can't think of any examples right now. But it pisses me off, I tell ya!

Okay, now that we've established how badly I screwed up, does anyone know if there's a way to delete a thread? Or is it out there for good?
There's no "official" way to delete a thread, but you can always edit the original post to something the mods don't likedantheman931 said:

Just wait until tomorrow; unless this thread is the best thing since the internets, it'll get eaten by the Page 300 Monster.
Dude who cares... there are people who live to point out a repeated thread. They obviously have nothing better to do, and shit is bound to get reposted no matter what. So keep trucking...dantheman931 said:

Leave me to die in peace!TaborMallory said:There's no "official" way to delete a thread, but you can always edit the original post to something the mods don't likedantheman931 said:
