"Is there some people you simply can't stand?"

People who don't know the difference between "is" and "are"?

What about the difference between "people" and "persons"?

For the most part, "people" and "persons" are synonymous pluralizations of "person", though "people" is the more modern/common form.

Now, of the OP had asked "Is there some PERSON you simply can't stand?" I wouldn't have made my original snarky comment

Are you sure about that? Did google lie to me again?!
