Yes
So when you hear someone say congrat/ds, do you ask them to clarify whether they said it with a d or a t?

Here's another huge one
Scene:
You're at a Mexican restaurant with a group of people and the waiter brings two salsas, one regular one spicy. Some assfaced clown dips the spicy, everyone else grimaces because they know what's coming "oh that's got a little bit of a kick to it"

There's always a clown in your group waiting to tell you about the kick in the salsa

Take it to the master submarine thread, shipmate. We'll burn flicks after the evening watch and play some cribbage in the lounge.

When idiots call caribou "reindeer."  Like if it's Santa/Christmas specific fine call them reindeer, but any other context they are rough ridin' caribou.
