Every time I correct someone they get mad 
Don't get mad at me because you're stupid and don't understand basic language.
If you're getting married to the love of your life and the wedding officiant asks you, "Do you take Jesus/Mary to be your lawfully wedded husband/wife?" what do you say?
You say, "I do!" You don't say, "I do NOT!"
Why?
Because the word "not" changes the meaning of the statement! The word fucking matters! Use it when it's supposed to be used!
It doesn't bother me, but other really common ones that pop up...
We are wary of dangerous dogs and weary of circular conversations, not the other way around.
Your purposes are never intensive, the phrase is "for all intents and purposes".
There are no escape goats taking the blame, it's scapegoats who take the fall.

Pet peeve
If someone confides in a person who is telling you all someone else's business They are doing the same to you. People show you who you are- believe them If they are talking about someone else They talk about you.
Don't be upset when you're betrayed

And fucking autocorrect mangling our sentences
Some words I've had to type 3 times before the machine believes that I'm really trying to type that word. Darn.
