Today's pet peeve
 

Yeah, I'm a cranky old man. Here's what's making me cranky today.

1. People who call LPs "vinyls." Vinyls! Plural, even. They might get away with if they just said vinyl, which I can almost tolerate, but VINYLS?! Arrggggghhhh!

2. People who call turntables "record players." Record players? Come on. Jesus. record players are those plastic Fisher-Price toys with darning needles for styli.

If you happen to use these terms yourself and I like you, you're forgiven. But please watch it, okay?

i can play my vinyls on my record player if i want. so there.

Well, you're lucky. You're meaty and I like you.

ahhh you made me smile. well done.

How about "Wax?"

yall just need to take some viagra

nobody wants to hear about yr bikini line.

kthx.

Well, robot cult leaders with eyeliner sideburns who have to figure out how to administer poison Kool Aid to their pet monkeys probably have enough to wory about, true.

Yeah, wax is cool, if a little dated.

I have a dog i called Peeve. i called him that just so i could say to people, "This is my pet peeve"

I hate when people the word good incorrectly. "You did that good."

i do that almost constantly. it would seem as though i wasn't taught how to speak properly (SPEAK, not type. my english when typing is impeccable.)

So you get mad if we call it phonograph?

People that reply "okay" or "no problem" after "thank you."

okay.

No, I'd just think you were really silly, or like 90 years old. Try using the word when you go into a music store and ask for a specific release. "I'd like to buy Sticky Fingers on phonograph?"

Eh, what? You want a Victrola to play that on, too?

I would have to positive-rep you for being truly an individual.

So, what if I get one of those from the store? They are like 60 to 100 dollars is that fine?

One of what?

Well I don't want to say it, I might offend you. A turntable.
