Speaking of "O" and "0", it's even MORE annoying when people VERBALLY don't distinguish between the two, as in phone numbers... "one zero six five two eight seven" which is uttered "one OH six ...." You get the point. Goes beyond mere semantics, though it's a minor one/1. :-)

Watch it buddy! btw, you can emphasize the "oh" as in "ohhhhhhhhh my god!" for effect.

If you worked in my office, you'd hit "Postal" by the third day. Most of the drama queens here utter the phrase, "Oh My God!" atleast 10 times a day each. One in particular even has set a new office record of 50 in one day, sometimes up to 3 in 1 sentence, and, if speaking of a topic no one really asked about and no really even cares about, can be incredibly animated to the point of my researching voodoo dolls... Of course, imagine the various permutations of that phrase in various phonetically challlenged voices (particularly the drama queen/California Valley high school voice for emphasis) and you can imagine the level of dread I breach every day upon entering the office and being subjected to exaggerated stories at volumes that would wake Helen Keller... ACK!!!!
