People who can't pronounce 'th'.
I have a lot of beef with Kathleen Lynch (current Minister of State for Disability, Equality and Mental Health) who can't pronounce "health" properly.
HELT. Ugh.
That's how I would say it.
That is basically the dublin accent though, The south side accent where the t is barely present and the h seems to last forever is way more nasty.
Other ones I hate are
Ciaran pronounced keern or even keerin. Fucking Horrible.
Against pronounced again. Makes my skin crawl.
All southside-isms like Ort and Fock Morto.
And anyone who uses internet or text phrases in real life. BRB and LOL should never be heard in conversation ever.
But by far the worst the one which irritates me more than anything else in modernity.
People who say or write "Soz" instead of sorry.
You are apologising the fucking least you can do is have the respect to spell the whole fucking word. I demand apologies for apologies if they include that word. usually they are something like this
"Soz
What the fuck is that supposed to mean you disrespectful cunt
What ? I said SORRY what more do you want ?
You didn't say fucking sorry, you said "SOZ" there is a massive fucking difference between fucking SOZ and FUCKING SORRY.
eh.. okay sorry.
It's grand, don't mention it."
I've been working a lot in UCD lately. All the kids in their early 20s use LOL as a spoken word. Not L-O-L... Loll. I asked a girl recently if she was the conductor of the choir to which she replied "Oim troying to be... Loll" and what annoyed me the most was that she wasn't even remotely laughing, let alone laughing out loud.
Dublin people droping the letter T at the the end of a word
eg toilet pronounced "toile(h)" shite pronounced "shie"

Pronounced the silent t in often. Also cockneyisms like Fink instead of think. Basically English accents. Welsh or Scottish I love though.
