People who couple a common noun...



... or a proper noun with -ing to make a verb that doesn't exist. Seriously, fuck the fuck off! It's the most annoying abuse of the English language since the negligent use of the word "literally".


For example, "Facebook-ing", "Revision-ing" (It's revising, you moron!), "Assignment-ing", "Starbuck-ing" etc etc.


It wasn't funny when advertisers thought taglines like "Have you Dom-ed today?" and "Hang on, I'm Bueno-ing" were a good idea and it most certainly isn't "funny" now. I mean, hang on, *adds to list of people who should be lined up and shot dead*, for fuck's sake!
