Bae, like any word, can mean multiple things but one of those things is that it means Danish for poop.

Says instead of said.

"So I says to him......"

My uncle does this all the time when telling a story. Luckily, he decided he doesn't like his brother (my dad) anymore so I don't have to hear it anymore

Using 'of' when 'have' is the correct word.

"Could care less" instead the proper phrase "couldn't care less"

 Around here it DOES mean baby.  People put it on their FB pages all the time.  It's especially common to hear women call their b/f bae.

 You understand that some of that is because of where people live?  Is that what colloquialism means?  Anyway, some of it depends on are of living.

 We all know that. Seriously we do.

But, IN CONTEXT, does "poop" make sense?

 Yup.

My dad always said "warsh."

And I have never heard anyone pronounce the first "r" in February.

He/I "got" murdered, robbed, a cold. No, you go to the store and get groceries, but you don't proactively "get" shot, run over by a car. You were murdered, you were robbed, but you did "get" or "got" it.

 Because it sounds so uneducated and "got" is when you purposely go out and obtain something.  You don't go out and ask someone to shoot you.  It hurts my ears. Just axe me.

I also hate warsh opposed to wash.  There is no r in wash!

Words I hate:

Homophobe
Islamaphobe
Birther
Climate Change Denier

And on and on. Name calling is what they do best. Calling someone a homophobe should be considered a slur just like any other name calling, but funny when one group does it it isn't.

For me Bae is short for Bailey on Party of Five. It drove me nuts.

I hate the word "spendy" for expensive.

 One of my good friends ALWAYS says ideal instead of idea. I cringe internally every time, but I can't bring myself to correct her. 

After all, I know exactly what she means and she might be the nicest person I know.

"My bad" and "no problem".

I don't understand why "I'm sorry" and "you're welcome" are so hard to say.

 I know it's usually regional. It just bugs me. I feel that colloquialism is the wrong word for this but, according to Google, it seems to fit so I don't know.

My grandma does all three of those and she lives roughly 15 miles from me so it's not always regional.
