How about the commonly, and incorrectly, used expression, "volts through it"....such as, "are you sure I can put 5 volts through it without any damage?"

Their, I sed it, I feel better now. This thread has been a catharsis, thanks Patsgarage!
How's about 'irregardless'?....Gotta love that one!

I have always said boat motor, I don't know why, even though it is an engine. I have never heard anyone say, "Outboard boat engine".

I hate it more when someone writes RPM's, because that is the possessive form. But, I doubt I would start a thread on the CF about it.

last time I checked, it is the internet and the punctuation police are still trying to set a national policy. Even after that occurs, we will still have issues since no one bothers anymore. everything is slang due to texting and e male.

The one that drives me bat$hit crazy is when people use "bring" for take.

I'm going to bring my car to the dealer. Arghhhhhh!!!!

No, idiot, you're going to take your car to the dealer.

And the dealer might well ask, "Did you bring your extra FOB?"
