Pedants: He asked if she minded. She responded saying, "Sure thing," which is an affirmative response, meaning that she did mind. He still attempted to use the bathroom despite her saying she was uncomfortable with that.

I have difficulty with interactions in which people use "do you mind" that I have to be extra clear. Anyone else?

My pet peeve is interrogative greetings : how are you? how's it going? What's up? etc.
