If you're not French, stop using the word "sans" in place of "without".

Sans is fine. Just like how people say Kaput instead of broken or Gesundheit instead of bless you.

If you're not a European asshole or a flaming homosexual stop using the term "suite mate" in place of roommate.

I don't know why you guys have such a big problem with sans. The bigger problem is when people refer to pants as culottes or Pantaloons. That pisses me off. They're pants.

Word!
What if you're French Canadian?
Why would that matter? If you're speaking in French use sans, if you're speaking in english use without.

In college I had a roommate that lived literally in the same room as me and suitemates that lived in a connected room. We all shared one bathroom.

Congratulations, you had roommates.

Skoorb, if this is the worst thing bothering you today, you should go kiss your wife and baby and thank whatever it is you pray to.

since we are airing out verbal frustations... i hate when people say 'cha cha cha' after every line during the 'happy birthday' song. there's always that one person in the crowd who does it. it wasnt funny the first time, so people are not all of a sudden going to find it hilarious after the 50th time.
