And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with our scars

Does "ain't" count? I hate that word. It's so disgusting.
"Rawks" is pretty pathetic, too.

I don't like the way this word is spelled when it looks like this "Gawd".

It's just so indicative of poor education. That's why!

I utterly despise "safe". For karma's sake, when you see me, you don't have to mutter "safe" and knock your fists with mine!!! I know you're my friend!

I dislike "like" at the end of every sentence. I also dislike those people who swear every other word. Come on, be creative

oh just to add to the above hatred of such text
pure txt writing,
you know the real hard core lot not just the basic shortining of the odd word the ones where you have to read them 6-20 times later your still trying to work out the last bit.

And what exactly is wrong with saying alrieet ? I suppose the phrase well eye man annoys you to ? (JK).
Its true that as a geordie you and I tend to have a more colourful dialect (Does that sentance make any sense ?) and that people around have some wierd sayings and phrases but you have got to love them dude, GEORDIES RULE.... I won't touch the aliens from sunderland.
What annoys me is when people say 'swell eye' I dunno why but it is so immature and annoying. When your in primary school you think your dead clever saying 'swell eye man' but when your in your final years of high school it starts to get irrating.

I feel really stupid saying the people from sunderland and the sunderlanders but I dunno how to spell Macham, That is I presume almost right so anyway. I personally like Ho'ay man, I dunno why but I think the word or words or whatever its classed as is a really nice smooth one that just rolls off the tongue.

Sorry for the double post buts theres also something else I hate, Its not actually lingo or anything but what I really hate is the angel of the North.
Ok I don't actually hate it I just don't see why everyone I speak to likes it. Why on Earth do people think it looks nice ? It is to me just an upside down aeroplane stuck in the ground thats gone rusty.

What the crashed aeroplane? I know exactly what you mean.

Because we all know "y'all" radiates intelligence, right Kevin?
I despise "hella" and "w00t". They make me cry
I know there are more, I just can't think of them at the moment.
