People who nit pick spelling and grammar errors on blogs. Especially when I read it before I've had my coffee, especially MY blog, especially when it's FUCKING FREE! I give good info on this site and don't take kindly to persnickety, tetchy bystanders who never put themselves out there armchair quarterbacking my shit.

This is a journal, and maybe you do a first draft in your diary, but I just spit it out. Art, You wanna know my pet peeve?

Sorry, IT'S my pet peeve. By the way, Americans always dribble wine into glasses; Europeans really pour it--"glug, glug, glug." “. . . bely ITS price.” Sorry, IT’S my pet peeve.
