Words that I dislike

The irritating use of the letter r in words such is off by the so called nobs , the word is off not Orff, rant over, I'm Orff now to have Sunday lunch.

The word "of" next to "should" or similar words, ie when someone writes: I should of done something, instead of I should have done something.  I've seen it quite a lot and it puzzles me where that comes from.  Perhaps I've led a sheltered life?  Must admit also, that English isn't my first language, but have lived here for over 40 years now and can't recall seeing that years ago.  Is it to do with text-speak?

'Deplane'  - horrible American expression.  It should be 'disembark'.

I think it evolved from an incorrect pronunciation of an abbreviated "Should Have"

The sequence being:

should have - should've - should of

Is that not a traditional English expression for a person who is temporarily occupying a toilet cubicle?

The use of the word Avatar other than for its original Hindu meaning :-  

a manifestation of a deity or released soul in bodily form on earth; an incarnate divine teacher.

synonyms: deity · god · goddess · mother goddess · divine being · etc

Hearing a V sound instead of a TH sound....nice wea-v-er innit.. oops that's another.. I don't mind really as long as people can communicate, good on them.

I don't have a problem with any words. It is when they are put in combination I start to have problems. 

Great and outdoors is one.  It's outdoors. Why is it always great?  Some outdoors is horrible
