I get really pi**t off when people say/write.'I should of', instead of, ' I should have,' & also, 'definately', instead of, ; definitely,'.
Then again, it's mostly English people, who are having trouble speaking their own language!!
Raise the bloody barricades, Gordy, here comes the flak!!

My pet hate. People who don't even bother to try and use punctuation and/or use a "i" instead of "I".

People who "brought" an apartment

"Chalish" and "Chalis"

People who like to be "far from the maddening crowd"

I have 533 more, I'll add later.

I visited a pub last night that had a very nicely produced colour poster, complete with photograph, that advertized "Pie's".

Scunner, who inclines to the French form of -ize (i.e. the repugnant -ise) will probably object to my classical Oxford spelling.
