"You still workin'?" (var., You still workin' on that). Gee, and I thought I was enjoying a meal at a fine dining establishment! Who knew there was a deadline?
Similarly: "Can I get that out of your way?" What else am I supposed to be using this space (i.e., the table top) for?
(Yes, I did just end a sentence with a preposition. Wanna make somethin' of it?)

Oh! My latest irritation: Signs on the thresholds of our building as the building undergoes renovation. "Wet threshold. Please do not step on." I fantasize about sending them an email saying, "Please do not end your sentence a preposition with." I fear they wouldn't get it.
