It's the pronunciations that get to me. I have been stressing to my
students that if they pronounce words correctly, they will be more

Then I walked into a 5th grade classroom where the teacher had written
the date as Valentines Day, Febuary 14, 2007.

ARGH!!!

My nit-pick of the moment is There's/Theirs and there/their/they're.

Oh, and spelling and grammar checking on the computer that tells me I
have it wrong when I write a sentence of 40+ words with three sets of
parentheses...

Then there's the split infinitive no man has splat before.
