    I hate it when people don't translate.
    Since I'm around Latinos most of the time I cannot stand a lot of their sayings.

    Like when a Vicente Fernandez song comes on and they say "Eso es la verdad!!!"
    and they do some stupid little fist pump.

    I hate another Spanish term that is really, and I mean really overly used.

    "Bueno, bonito, y barrato."

    One of the stupidest terms in all of mankind.

    I also hate the custom of saying "Bless you" when someone sneezes.
    This custom started centuries ago, when Europeans believed that illness was caused by 'evil spirits' infesting your body.
    Bring on the leeches and bloodletting!

    We don't live in the dark ages anymore. Can we drop this stupid saying now?

    I hate when people say... "We'll leave in a minute." and an hour later you are still waiting.

    Parents are good with this one, especially when visiting long winded friends with smelly houses. (childhood memories flooding my brains)

    "From the mouths of babes...", normally uttered when the little darling cusses or repeats something mommy or daddy said about someone, in front of the person in question.

    or along the same lines... "Where did they pick up something like that?" ... Yeah where, considering it's your kid, who spends 100% of his/her time with you?
