So I'm playing this Three Kingdoms eroge when all of a sudden this genderbent Guan Yu starts speaking to bandits like this:
"Thou shalt fall upon my Green Dragon Spear!"
And then she speaks to the main character like this:
"You should not push yourself so hard."
Aren't "thou and thine" more personal than "you and yours"? She should be using "you and yours" when addressing commoners, and "thou and thine" when speaking with her friends.

People who eat with their mouth open, or audibly at all, in a somewhat-quiet place piss me off. Unreasonably so.
The worst part is I know I do it sometimes too. aaaa

When people hum or sing a song they're listening to. Someone in my math class was humming a song they were listening to, and then the teacher mentioned it in a nice way, trying to hint that it was distracting, but then they just switched songs and hummed longer.
Another time, someone in my art class was full out singing/chanting some song he was listening to. I turned and looked at him, and then when I looked away he did it louder a bit and more feeling into it. I think he was trying to impress me or get my attention?? (Assuming this because he has been trying to be my best friend and really close to me.)

You call them mouses when they're for computers.

This just in: there is probably no one correct way to refer to this, since it was probably never a thing that anyone had to think about earlier than 20 years ago (Because who the hell would have had more than one computer mouse back then), and then is a regional preference besides.
Much like fish/fishes is generally a regional preference.
