Thought of another one! "On accident" in lieu of "by accident" completely drives me insane. I correct people in my head every time I hear it, and once it accidentally slipped out and I corrected someone verbally. I was so embarrassed!
That is one of my dad's pet peeves. He corrected me so many times as a kid that I NEVER make that mistake!!

Maybe our generation invented this error and our dads reacted appropriately!
I don't know if I should thank my dad for teaching me correctly, or to curse him for giving me a grammar peeve. I suppose it would be more appropriate to curse all the other dads that dropped the ball!
