Pet peeves, that is...
It's NAVEL. Not "bellybutton" not "naval" (For those unclear with the concept of homonyms, the first refers to the spot where one's umbilical cord was attached-- providing one was not a Tank-- the other refers to things associated with the navy.)
I know this should not bother me. There are so many other things that should bother me more. But I've been in a marathon fanfic-reading session lately and you know, every single time I'm reading a story and the author, in mid-sex scene, refers to someone's navel as their 'bellybutton' it completely throws me out of the story and I'm suddenly wondering if it was written by a 12-year-old girl.
Aaagh.
Navel. Navel. Navel.
Navel.
*grinch*

Me personally, I hate "cum" a lot. Also I've been seeing a lot of "discrete" instead of "discreet" and it BUGS me.
