I tend to be a teeny weeny pedantic about the use of the words of, off & have, it drives me insane when used incorrectly, although I have been known to use the same incorrectly myself

I shall commit a felony to repent

I'll join too if you include the use of the annoying 'end of' phrase used when somebody is too thick to carry on a debate

Mine isn't great. For isn't, I'll say "in't", for doesn't, I'll say "dun't", for wouldn't I'll say "wun't" and for couldn't - ah well now you understand why universal translators will never work!

Ooo sorry Cosmo, I added BB in the early hours, when I'd had a bit too much red wine!

I wish to report WILDER X to the Society. She has severely misused "of" and should be punished.
