So this has ALWAYS been a pet peeve of mine; since the beginning of my Sleuthing.

*NOTE: This is not as big of one as the waiter/waitress 'fiasco' was*


Take a look at Sleuth Admin's detective page, for example.

"Politics
Order o Socrates: Good(10)
Arcanum Brthrhd: Good(10)
Cosa Nostra: Poor(-3)
Eastern Triads: Good(10)
Circle of Light: Poor(-2)
Green Hand: Good(10) "

Notice that of is "o", not "of" in Order of Socrates
Notice that Brotherhood is shortened, and the word Dies is completely absent
"La" is missing in La Cosa Nostra
Isn't it "The" Green Hand, "The" Eastern Triads?


Now I know this was done because of margin widths, but can it not be fixed in any way? It's not only annoying, but also can be confusing as to what the factions are called. Perhaps they could even be shortened to just OS, LCN, DAB, GH, CoL, and ET? (Although that would be very confusing as well)



Just something that's always bothered me.

My pet peeve is people who sit in the middle of a lane in a parking lot blocking traffic for a half an hour because they're waiting for someone to vacate a parking space so they can take it! >( I just think that is RUDE!!!

People who relate every single thing that happens to them to a similar event they saw on a sitcom.

People who ask you if you've seen a sporting event, and when you reply that you didn't instead of just giving you the final score instead proceed to attempt to tell you in minute detail everything that happened in the game.

People who break their nails, and then think I need to know that it happened.

People who post multiple threads when they could have said it in just one ;)

People who don't realize that by posting on multiple threads, each one has its own seperate effect and is therefore more effective.

People who are rendered incapacitated by Japanese mustard.

People who try to have the last word by posting they hate people who need to have the last word, not realizing that by doing so they are both self-depricating themselves and creating a paradox at the same time.

Am I still #1 on your Sleuth Freebie List Biggie?
