One thing that REALLY irks me is when people say "baby" instead of "the baby" like so:

"Baby doesn't like his bottle too hot!"

or

"Make sure baby gets enough sleep!"

It's *THE* baby, goddamn it.

A branch of this would be "The Passion of The Christ". It should be "The Passion of Christ". If I borrow a friend's ladder and this friend is named Smith, I don't say, "The Ladder of The Smith."
