On accident

I kind of can’t take people seriously when they say On accident, I don’t know or care if its more or less grammatical, it sounds like a child sputtering in my mind. It should be By accident or accidentally

Tummy

Any adult has zero business saying this lol

    People using “was” when they mean “were”.

    And the classic “should of/could of”.

      Same but also add “less” and “fewer”

        I remember that thanks to the Goldie Lookin Chain song Waitrose Rap, which has the line “10 items or less, were you born in a sewer, the correct grammar should be 10 items or fewer”

        Trying to get everyone saying things properly is like hurting cats.
