People who consistently use the wrong word.

A few years back I was telling my family a story about finding one of my very elderly clients lying in front of my office one day. When I asked if she was ill, she responded that she was just tired and thought she'd rest until I arrived. At this point my sister-in-law said, "wouldn't she have been surprised if you bent over and started giving her artificial insemination?"

Ah, I reckon she would have! :)
