I don't know if this can be classified as a pet peeve. When people start their statements with: "I have 6 words for you...", I have a tendency to count whether or not the following statement is 6 words. Sometimes it is. Mostly, it's not. I am not annoyed, rather... I get a touch of satisfying pleasure at the expense of others. "What an idiot," I get to think for a mere second. I don't sit on my high horse for long, but I don't mind a quick hop-on/hop-off.
For example, last night on American Idol (go anOOP!), Kara said: "Six words: one of the best performances of the night." Err. Kara, did you count on your imaginary fingers for that one? That's 8 words, honey. I just got a Ping! for Pleasure. Experience it with me!
