I know too many people that do not have the ability to keep to the point, so I help keep the message short by using texting as the medium. If you want to talk about everything you did today, I'll gladly make some time and we can get dinner, but I can not stand being stuck on the phone with someone

And maybe this makes me a jerk, but my job includes a lot of time posting on craigslist, and I will flat out ignore messages from people who send me emails that start out UR STILL SELLIN? or something like that. If you are serious about doing business, act like it.

Know which ones really grind my gears? When guys type their transmissions as an E40D or M50D, including the guys that pronounce them as, and I kid you not the guys on HorsePowerTV have on national television, E-forty-D or M-fifty-D. It's not a zero, it's an "O", as in E4OD, Electronic 4 speed with Over Drive, and the M5OD is Manual 5 speed with Over Drive.
