phases that make me want to smack someone

[Pam]

I guess I judge someone's caring, class and concern by how they treat me and how they behave towards me, rather than what words they do or don't say when greeting me or saying goodbye. I'd be pretty reluctant to have a conversation with some of the people in this thread after reading it through. Never know when I'm saying or pronouncing something in a way that gets me judged or is angering someone to the point they want to hit me

I agree. Some of these "complaints" seem really petty. I actually go out of my way to not criticize someone's speech, probably to a fault. My co-worker often says something is a *mute* point rather than a *moot* point. I have yet to point out her error to her because I don't want to appear condescending.
