Ah, so many peeves, so little space...
"alot" instead of "a lot" (drives me NUTS. I correct e-mails from my boss with red letters and send them back to him. He does this on purpose, I swear.)
"cloths" instead of "clothes" (I'm still beating this into my husband, who writes "cloths" constantly.)
"fourty" instead of "forty"
"shoud" instead of "should"
"sike" instead of "psych" or "psyche"
"quasi" (I just hate this word; I lost a Regional Spelling Bee because of it.)
"Organise" instead of "organize" (This isn't "incorrect", I just like the Z. Apologies to any Aussies who might be offended by this. )
"Cheque" instead of "check" (See above disclaimer.)
People who correct my spelling of "travelled." Yes, I know it is commonly spelled "traveled," but since when do I do anything that is 'common?'
*FAVORITE WORD/PHRASE* "Machu Picchu" I love this. Can say it over and over. Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu. (see? )
Yours in verbosity,
