• Grocer’s apostrophes (or should I say grocers apostrophe’s)

• General poor spelling or grammar
• Getting classical history wrong

• Expressing views about India from a position of no knowledge
• Backdating Japanese Meiji-era power into prehistory
• Poor spelling or grammar, although Flocc corrects it in a teacherish fashion rather than Gahhing. For the sake of fairness, he only upbraids native anglophiles.

• People, usually Americans, making ignorant and inaccurate claims about the Celtic parts of the British Isles (see: Ridiculously Overpowered Ireland, Uber Cornwall, Scottish Aircraft Carriers)
• The BBC’s coverage of science news stories (see: BBC System of Measurements)
• The Guardian
• Americans who think, for some bizarre reason, that British people have bad teeth
• People who have daft and overinflated ideas about certain areas of scientific research (e.g. nanotechnology, genetic engineering) from having read techno-thrillers and techwank military pulp

• People confusing “German” with “Germanic”
• People who disunite Germany on maps (under ANY circumstances)
• The Universal Colour Scheme (see: Susanoism)

• People ignorantly writing off Africa as an AIDS-ridden hellhole that would be better off under the Draka.

• Grocer’s apostrophes - to the extent that he makes MrP seem positively tolerant of them.

• EA redefining the Red Alert series as a separate universe to the original Command&Conquer, and using ‘Tiberium’ rather than ‘Tiberian’ as an adjective, and lots more...
