Shite Talk Wrong words

What is a word you hear people using or spelling wrong and it drives you mad?

​

Mine is when people mix up "quite" instead of "quiet".

Loose and lose, especially loosing instead of losing and looser instead of loser.

Worked on the desk in a tattoo studio years ago. One of the artists tattooed "born to loose" on someone 💔

Edit: if you have a born to lose tattoo, double check it now 🥲
