Misspoken Words or Sayings

It happens almost on a daily basis, but where do people learn such misspoken sayings or words? How does intents and purposes become intensive purposes? Or, it's a mute point for it's a moot point?

Threads here are even mis-titled such as who hear listens to metal? Hear means to listen. Here on the other hand describes OT. I have even seen the made up word payed used in place of the word paid.

What are some of your favorite words or sayings that are misspoken?

I honestly could care less about these sorts of things.

I work at an office store, so I hear this one constantly. "Do ya'll have any cartalages?"

Cartalages.

Cartalages.

It's cartridge, you moron. How do you mess that up?

My name. Whenever they attempt to say it they always forget "the awesome" part at the end.

This is definitely one of my pet peeves as well. Some people don't think before they... type.

Another one is the simple distinction between words like there and their, your and you're etc.

I honestly rage when some asks me for an item by saying "Can i lend an x?" Instead of borrow.

Yes, sometimes even the other way round. "Hi raynimrod, can i borrow you a game?"

There is OFD or old farts disease. It has some similarities to Alzheimer's though.:?

Look it up online and get two birds stoned at once!headRooom

Old timers= Alzheimer's...you have to be a real retard to think that's an actual condition (old timers that is)BreakTheseLinks

Anyway, there's a few that annoy me but I can't think of them until they actually happen. Besides the obvious ones like "could care less" and "you're vs. "your", I try to say things like "converse" instead of "conversate".

Actually, I just thought of one. I HATE when people use the word "ironic" when it's actually coincidence, or especially when it's neither. :x
