I'm also not a fan of the word "sammie" instead of sandwich.
Horrible word from an annoying person (Rachel, not you!)
This it the word that popped in my head every time I saw this thread.

Re: Spinoff: Made up words
Tyenol
Pronounced: Tie - en- all
Dilautin
Pronounced: Die - law - tin
I'm a nurse so I hear these all the time.
It's tylenol and dilaudid people!!! AHHHHH!!!
And, of course, when people tell me how their loved one was incubated in the ICU before. Really? You sure they weren't INTUBATED?

Re: Spinoff: Made up words
Had to steal this from the Tosh.0 Blog:
"Jeggings", "sexting", "retweet" and "woot" are all official words now after being added to the most recent edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.
Let's use these new words in a sentence!
"got new jeggings. woot woot. every1 gonna b sexting me. retweet this if u want me ;)"

Conversate makes my skin crawl. I asked someone if he meant converse, and he had no idea what I was talking about 
OMG I had the same discussion with my mom the other day. She was talking to me on the phone and said "I have to let you go. I have to conversate with my boss." I told her mom that's not a word. Then she went into a 20 min discussion with me how it was because she heard other people use that word. Really?!

shrimps: please stop adding the 's'
I get so irritated when people add an unnecessary s to words. People seem to do that with stores- Costcos, Victoria's Secrets (she only have ONE secret...not many!).
I have some friends on FB that are in high school (my cousins, girls I used to coach) and I can't stand when they type "yer" instead of "your". It's one less letter! I also see "yew" instead of "you" (massive cringe!)
When I was younger on AOL I saw a lot of I "Luff" you.

Yes it's a word but "Nonstandard except in some dialects ".
Dialects = John Mayerisms.
If I heard someone use that I think "idiot". To me it's akin to ebonics.

Re: Spinoff: Made up words
I hate when people still call this year "0-11".
Or last year was "0-10"
I realize there is still a 0 in front of it, technically speaking, but you just sound like a doofus.

On one of the early episodes of Friends Chandler was talking to Joey about how picky he was about finding a girlfriend. He was worried he would pass on the perfect girl, "because she pronounces it 'supposibly.' After he leaves, Joey is standing there saying, "Supposibly. Supposibly. 'Did they go to the zoo?' 'Supposibly!"
I have a friend that says "Supposibly" AND "Verranzano" when referring to the bridge. I don't have the heart to correct her, but I cringe every time I hear either.

I had a friend who said everyone who says icecream and popcorn are wrong. Sooo she insisted that our country was made up of poorly English speaking people and posed arguments why it's actually supposed to be called iced cream and popped corn. It drove me nuts!! I can see her point, but that's not how 97% of us say either of those words!!

Hate mines; I tell my PKers; are you down in the mines again?
I cringe at "idear"
My MIL says "earl" for oil and chimley for chimney or winding for "whining". URR
