I have just discovered this section - I am now officially addicted to MN. I will be on here all the time, day and night. I am a pedant and proud! In fact I might make a badge saying that. I would begin by stating my pet hate - but there are so many I don't know where to start... After a think I it has to be 'could of, should of, would of' Angry

I’m laying in bed with downtown Abby, wanting a cheering up. Should of stuck with chat

Erm…

Where do we start with this one, fellow pedants?

Leaving aside the "should of", there is the misspelling of Downton Abbey and the misuse of the verb "to lie".

My Ex-H used to say that he was "laying" in bed.

I think that may have been why we divorced.

it was a nightmare with regards to tax credits

Nobody sends greetings to tax credits, surely?

My pet hate (apart from "onto") is seeing "with regards to" and "in regards to".

Bah.
