Over the years I've comprised a long list of pet peeves that many bloggers (including myself) have done. Here is a quick list.
- Using the term "meme"
- Prefacing names with the word "Shorter"
- Referring to politicians too formally, like constantly calling Eric Cantor, "Leader" Cantor.
- Moderating comments.
- Putting up long posts about the UFC in a politics blog.
- Bad spelling.
- The term "jumping the shark."
- Bad grammer.
- Primary vs. convention.
- Money bombs. It's gotten old, folks. The original money bombs were grassroots activists getting together and raising money all at the same time. Now its no different than regular fund-raising that astro-turfs "grassroots" support.
- Posting press releases. Come on, we're better than that.
That's all I've got.
Wow. That felt good! Haha, if there is anything else feel free to vent!
Speaking of bad spelling and grammar, that would be "grammar" not "grammer." It would also be "it's no different" not "its no different."

Haha, the grammar was on purpose . . . the other one, not such much. LOL
