Default Sayings that people totally butcher.....

Some examples of phrases and words I hear almost daily that are totally wrong and/or misused:

"I could care less"
-----really? Personally, when I don't really care "I couldn't care less"

"Orientated"
----not a word. Its oriented.

Irregardless
-----not technically a word. Its regardless.

and a bit obscure, but...

"Chomping at the bit"
-----wrong. Its "champing at the bit". Everyone says chomping




Please add yours and/or just call me a nit.

"I could care less"......
