"Things I don't get"

I don't get why do so many people spell the word "article" as "artical".

Here's a few that bother me:

People who still say "IRregardless" event though that non word may be the most discussed abuse of the English Language this side of Stephon Marbury.

People (Mostly ESPN ex-jock "analysts") who say "each and every" time, day, player, etc . Isn't that just a bit more than being a touch of somewhat of a little bit of a redundancy?

I don't get no double negatives.

ESPN analysts are trained, taught, and developed by the Department of Redundancy Department.

It's a very thin line between "not getting something" and pet peeves.

Tread lightly here, that goes for all of us.

I'm not sure about moving on to the asian chick. She has a smell to her. Its not bad, really, just odd. I don't know if its bad perfume, bad deoderant, or just BO. I need to figure that out and solve the problem though because she's been waiting for me.......

I don't get why the smell bothers me. Its not bad, really, just different.

Could be food. What does she eat normally? Is she a first/second generation immigrant? Some of my better friends are Indian, first generation American, and there's not necessarily a bad smell but you can tell when they've eaten authentic indian food, it's just a weird odor from the spices, kind of comes out the pores.

It could be incense.

You better stay away from that. If she smells that bad normally, imagine the smell "down there".

I don't get why old people drive huge cars. They are the worst drivers and yet they have huge cars that they can't park properly. I think a big part of it is that the cars were always big for them (in size) and they probably just don't want change. So what. Get a smaller and nice car that you can actually park and not hit everyone with. I cringe ever time I see some old lady that's 4 feet tall trying to see over the hood of her crown victoria.
