What is your most hated type of title?

To me, it has got to be, "What do we like for fill-in-the-blank?"
Man, it just rubs me the wrong way. Who the hell is "we"? Just ask the question the normal way and try not to be hip. There is no "we", kapish?

No even "Help me choose a gun for my ex-GF" can beat this in terms of annoyance.

"I went to the gun store to buy a "xyz".

But the post goes on to say he bough something else instead and basically a diss on "xyz" and why would I care what you went to the gun store to buy in the first place.
