A number of a peeves....

Drug: a substance that is used as a medicine or narcotic; or the act of administering said substance
Dragged:the past participle and past tense of drag, i.e. to pull along forcefully
Example: he was dragged into the bedroom
NOT: he was drug into the bedroom
While the use of "drug" is sometimes used as dialect and colloquial variants, it still bugs me!

Also could of, should of, would of.... No, no, no! It's could have, should have, would have! Or could've, should've, would've.

Lastly - it's "I couldn't care less." Yes, really. There's a pretty good argument/explanation here.

Thank you, getting off my soapbox (for) now.
