35. Oh my god (sorry cliche)... that's one of my BIG pet peeves!
But... I gave up my grammar nazi hat after the election.

However... that's just here. In the "real world," where I read freshman essays for a living, I circle the heck out of that error with bright green (or purple, depends on mood) ink!


And YES, the #1 error is... singular/plural pronoun swaps. Arrrrrgh!
