To be irritated when people on television say "Haitch"?

[ViscountessPetitLapin]

This wretched woman just said "Haitch Emm Ess" (HMS) and it drives me NUTS!

he he thought of another one, people who say...
'Why did you do that for'

Try working in an accounts dept for a major retail shop and every bag sent in from said shops for our attention (over 500 shops) says 'Brought ledger dept' .

People who spell lose loose
See it all the time

Or people that sort of do things like go to the cinema.

Either you did it or you didn't - you can't sort of lots of things unless you work for Royal Mail.

right the following piss me right off

saying "we was "instead of "we were"
saying "aint"
saying "I borrowed her my book"

well there was a convo about this before and it tuned out tat 'haitch' is correct in Hiberno-English, which is what I speak so........

haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch, haitch!

People who say everything like it's got a question mark at the end............ My DS1 does it occasionally grrrrrrrrrrrrr

My mum is Irish and says Haitch, NeckLACE and Or for the letter R. She then moved to East London and had a family. We all talk proper so wots boverin u innit? I personally love people mixing up lend and borrow as in can you borrow me a tenner? Er No

pinky's head explodes trying to guess how else you'd say R............. BOOM!

dd2 asked me how to spell HAITCH today. And when I try to tell her, AITCH, AY, I...she interrupts - no mummy, HAITCH.

I'm American. I can't pronounce HAITCH.

Ahem, HopeItWontBeBig:
say everything as if it has a question mark....

Pinktulips, didn't mean to make your head explode

PMSL Blu, I wondered who'd notice that!

dwats oooookay wedlawry.

how dooo you sway awwwwwr den?

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I say ARRRR and Mums says ORRR (like Oar of a boat). She has loads - Filum (Film), Lather (ladder) tree (three) Tree (tree), Shore = drain, Press = cupboard. I can't go on as I'm feeling mean and disloyal now

hot press
shtick
shtir

i say most of those and im not even proper irish!

She tells me I don't speak properly. Err I wonder why Mum?

OMG! my DH says haitch and it drives me crazy. I can't keep correcting him though or it might eventually be grounds for divorce! I have to just let it go. It's like nails down a blackboard for me though.

Supremely irritating and you have every right to throw bricks at the TV. No excuse for it.

Another one is "ecksetera".

I've never forgiven that supposedly erudite user of the English Language, Steven Patrick Morrissey, for lapsing into it on "Sweet & Tender Hooligan". And on "A Rush And A Push" he sings "people who are uglier than you and I", which is also swful.

"Haitch" is such a bugbear of mine...my DS has even started saying it because his teacher at school does!!!

I reckon you can get away with anything in an irish accent though, I love "filum" .

Mum got stopped for speeding in Ireland once; the Garda said to her "Now madame, you were doing tirty tree moiles an arr" and she got the giggles... he was not impressed.

Weirdly, my mum is Irish and my dad South African, and they both say 'Filum'... so there's no hope for me.

Currently the battle in our house is whether dd will grow up saying 'bath' (good solid northern pronunciation) or 'barrth' (soft southern wimp pronunciation).

I hate Haitch too, btw...
