Whats your worst pet-peeve when it comes to

Grammar? Not online or texting, but things people say or write formally that just grinds your gears.
For me, I can't stand it when people say "should of" instead of "should have."

[quote=hangwithhung]when people say "axe" instead of "ask."
"Feel free to [i][b]axe[/b][/i] me any questions!"[/quote]

Almost all my black friends say "axe" but it's not their fault or intentional at all. They just grow up with it thinking it's normal. Like an asian man that has trouble between Ls and Rs.

I was using swype on my phone to type "baby" but instead, it put "bae". [url=http://media.tumblr.com/64c9e13f795d743684db409dd8f49e3d/tumblr_inline_nkocg7re3g1qg78ij.jpg]I was like.[/url]

"your" and "you're", "their" and "they're"
although people these days say "your" instead of "you're" on purpose so it doesn't bother me as much anymore

your and you're. sooooo common and so annoying.
always read you're as you are and you won't mistake the two >.<
if you misuse you're/your, you might as well just say "ur"

Aren't they saying "should've" the contraction to mean "should have" instead of "should of" o.o

"I could care less"

Anyone who says this needs to jump off of a cliff.
