Re: That's annoying.
In this case, that would be grammatically incorrect. "Windows", despite looking like a plural form, is singular. It is, in fact, short for "Windows operating system", and "system" is the word that drives the singular/plural form.
If, however, you are closing all the windows in your house, and they all closed at the same time, and they all opened up and down, you could say, "Windows are shutting down" and be grammatically correct. |

Re: That's annoying.
"Windows is shutting down. " would be grammatically correct, as long as there is a period. Really just the ellipsis is out of place.
Something else that annoys me. Prescriptive grammar. |

Re: That's annoying.
People who call them blinkers. Honestly, I think we might as well call them thingamajigs or dohickeys. Let's use proper terminology. They are turn signals.
As many have put before: Please take no offense. Just a personal annoyance. |

Re: That's annoying.
People who do drugs for no reason that they can say themselves, other than "why not."
"Why not?" which of course is generally followed by a verbal eruption. |

Re: That's annoying.
people who say FIRST is a waste of money. direct quote, "your not inventing anything new so why waste so much money?"
even if we are not inventing new technology, with this type of attitude, why not just get rid of school too, we're not discovering anything new so then why bother? people who sign up for programming, but only know how to copy/paste from other people |

Re: That's annoying.
*The fact that I had to read this whole thread just to make sure I didn't repeat anything (sorry if I do anyway, I got lazy towards the end)
*People who call me a geek one minute and ask me for homework help the next *People who use 'geek' instead of 'nerd'... I don't know why it bothers me *People snapping. I swear to you, the sound is worse than the whole fingernails-on-chalkboards thing. *Awkward situations that are not my fault but I somehow manage to get caught up in anyway *The fact that I am currently procrastinating two reasearch papers to type up annoying things when this is the only free time I will have all weekend *People who glare *The insert button on the keyboard *People who think I only read Twilight because everyone else did- I started reading it when it first came out, thank you very much *People who are unable to call others by their ACTUAL name *People who don't show up the robotics meeting |

Re: That's annoying.
What about the num lock button? Why would I want to turn the numbers off?
Also, caps lock key. Who uses that button? Spammers. Some others, but not as extensively as those annoying trolls. |

Re: That's annoying.
type four people...
people are made up of 4 traits: intelligence, lack of, industriousness, laziness. 1st type, intelligent & industrious. people best for leadership 2nd type, intelligent & lazy. people that will figure out how to do things only once. 3rd type, lacking intelligence & lazy. just about dead weight, don't do anything. 4th type, lacking intelligence & industrious. causing more problems than they are worth. |
