The worst one is lose and loose. It’s incredible how people that have been alive for decades speaking, reading and writing English fluently can still get these wrong.

"Should/would/could of" kills me every time. I get that it like that in speech, but cmoooon it doesn't even make sense

Even then, a simple contraction fixes that! "Could've, should've, would've" swipe type and autocorrect gets it, why can't they??? ;-;

Makes no sense at all; what do they think the “of” even means?? The verb is “to have” as in “to have done something”, not “to of done something”. Madness.
