people who say player X "fighting" or "whaiting" I have no idea why they do that and it's just grammatically abominable

People who think they are cleaver responding to stuff like this with "People who ask what grinds my gears" or "Threads like this."

People who place Orders while they are talking on the phone, and get upset when their phone conversation gets interrupted.

Terrible drivers...

It's from the Korean scene where there are very few English speakers and they tend to speak with broken grammar (basically a relic from BW days).
I can take that responsibility.

People who turn atheism into a religion. It is just another form of religious fanaticism. And to give examples, I would say Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and possibly Geert Wilders.

I hate it when people make just completely retarded grammar and spelling errors. If they're not native English speakers, it's fine. People still learning or with weak English tend to not make retarded mistakes like writing, "of" instead of "have", which is a maddeningly common error nowadays. That "of" hurts my head so goddamn much I now make a point to be a douche and correct every single one of those I see.

Selfish and self-centered people grinds my gears most. Also hippies, vegetarians, truth tellers and peacefull helpers who try to make others "better". Dealt with em all but no matter how tolerant you remain - they drive you nuts.
Best example I had was when a hippy said, that he doesn't want to rip me off, after I helped him with money and he demanded more but when I said that I had no cash he gave me an instruction to go to the bank and withdraw some for him... best part was me helping him with work also before giving money. How in the blue hell does one say "don't wanna rip you off cuz you helped me a lot" and ask for more when hearing a no?!

People who use "you're a grammar nazi" as a defense to being terrible at grammar.

When your brain sees something written incorrectly enough times, it recognizes the pattern and starts interpreting it as the correct method. Thus when you see idiots using the wrong "there/their/they're" or the wrong "you're/your" every day on the internet, you end up using it yourself sometimes. It's absolutely infuriating how people seem to think it's okay to just have bad grammar their whole lives simply because "everyone who doesn't is a grammar nazi."

People who think their race is the only one that requires skill to play.

Also, people who blame their losses on Race imbalance. Have had a few people start a game with "GG, I spawned Terran. Easy win for you. Q.Q"

Generally when people have to find a scapegoat so they don't have to admit to themselves they suck at SC. (Trust me, we are all pretty shitty at one point in time)
I can take that responsibility.
