If I heard someone say "life" TV, it would definitely grate a bit. So does "axe" instead of "ask" though.. I'm probably a relic.

I dunno, I find that irritating too, same with FIB instead of FBI (It was annoying me on GTA V until I realised that, in the game, they are the Federal Investigations Bureau)...

The handle is Peeple because of sheeple. At that time I had a cool warsheep avatar.

Not much gentleman, ey?
