Verbal ones really get me...

''Can I get'' in a shop etc, instead of ''Can I have''

''Haitch'' instead of ''Aitch''

''Train station'' instead of ''Railway station''

Verbalised Americanisms and moronisms really piss me off. Especially when used on television, as this is influencing children and potentially coercing an entire generation into speaking like cretins.

Train station one's maybe a bit too far, you could have colloquialisms coming in to it at that level

No Alan, loads of people say it. You hear it on television all the time.

It's factually incorrect. Since when has the station been located on the train?

Plus it sounds wrong. It doesn't roll off the tongue correctly.

It's a station for trains, like a station for busses.

You don't call a bus station a road station do you?

Sorry Ben.

One of my best, oldest, dearest friends says it.

I have to restrain myself from punching him in the teeth when he does.

No it's a bus garage or depot. The buses are independant of it and can drive past it or go into it. It is separate from the road.

A railway station is actually on the raiway. The train cannot not pass through it. It serves the train, but it is not a part of it. Hence railway station and not train station.

The irony is the most basic thing you learn is to start sentences with a capital letter and end them with a full stop, something you have clearly not grasped whilst attempting to slate others.

Akin to being lectured off Steve on social interaction with females his own age.
