If you didn't grow up in the south, you have absolutely no business saying "y'all." It's also one of those things that you should never type anyway, and only say out loud.

This one really gets me. I'm from the south. It seems like the contraction got co-opted into some sort of weird inclusivity thing, and now I hear it more from liberal/tumblr types than actual southerners.

"If you don't like it then it's not FOR you!!" Perhaps you're right. Maybe it's not for me.

One that kinda bothers me is when people say "Narrative" when talking about history, or current events.

History is just a series of things that happened, if you go into it expecting a "Narrative" with heroes and arcs and villains, you aren't going to see what really happened. It's like a bunch of people saw some propaganda, realized it didn't accurately reflect reality, and instead of saying "history doesn't follow a narrative structure" they said "we're going to change the narrative."

There's no interest in attempting to be more accurate, there's only interest in spinning things to benefit the speaker.
