I think it's okay to say "I wish you would" or "I hope you do" and not "You should". I don't like folks telling me I "should". Do you?

    Oh God.  Just don't say that stuff to me.   I cannot stand "YOU SHOULD".

    I hate it. My sister used to say that a lot. I finally answered with "You know what you should do? Not tell me what I should do." She stopped saying it. BTW, I asked this a few years ago at AB and got similar answers. Thanks for bringing it up again. This post was edited by Element 99 at September 27, 2017 1:13 PM MDT
