What "gets my goat" is when people use the term "I could care less" instead of "I couldn't care less".

My biggest pet peeve is when people use words that aren't real words, but they think they are. It drives me nuts. What's even worse is that some of these made up words make it into the dictionary simply because people don't care enough to learn how to speak correctly in the first place. (Example: "Conversate." The word is actually "converse.")
