Re: What's your pet peeve?
I'm a server, and I get so pissed off....
I'll go ahead and ask people if they've ever been here before, and they'll tell me that they haven't. I start to give them the first timers shpeal, and they cut me off and say they don't want to hear it. Then all of a sudden they have like 50+ questions. Maybe if you listened to my shpeal, you wouldn't have any questions you inpatient douche. So many people don't understand restaurants. From tipping, to common courtesy. It's so frustrating.

Re: What's your pet peeve?
People who misuse the term "begging the question." Begging the question is a logical fallacy wherein the conclusion of the argument is stated in one of the premises.
So many times I hear people say, "Well that begs the question, yadda yadda" with some smug look on their face like, "Hey, look how smart I am." What they really mean to say is "That raises the question" or "That brings up the question." "Begging the question" does NOT mean you're just dying to ask something or that something is demanding (or "begging") to be asked. /rant

Re: What's your pet peeve?
When people here misspell the names of Redskins players/coaches. If anywhere, I expect to at least see correct spellings on this site. Some examples:
Carlos Rodgers Al Sanders Jason Cambell Daryl Green Sean Springs Shawn Taylor

Midway through last year we saw a guy drawing out a sign in one of the ramps that said: "FIRE" AL SANDER We still mock this sign today but we're still not sure why the word fire was in quotes. Is it possible that this "fan" wanted to actually set poor Al Sander ablaze as if he were a 17th century witch? Also, who is this mysterious Al Sander anyway? Did this guy not enjoy Al Sander's photographs? So many questions... so many questions...
