Stupid little things that bug you

Knobheads who go into a coffee shop and say "Can I get a laaaaahhtay".
Indeed. Even in Italian it’s just “latte” they don’t over pronounce the ‘a’ so why would we?

I’ve even been “corrected” by a barista (not “baaaarista”) when I’ve asked for a “latte” and they’ve repeated it back to me as “laaaaaattay?”.

Also when people (mainly Americans) who say “Milaaaan”.

Poncy pretentious twats. When I go in these places for a coffee the wife has to translate, I'm old school.

Americans can't do short vowels. Hence Kim Jong-Oon, Lazaaagne, Maaazda, Djoe-kovic, Oe-micr-own, Moe-gadishu, Groe-zny and many others.
