Another that bothers me is very (or any other adjective) unique...
Since unique means the only one, how can something be more unique than that?

archer, there ARE people who don't know that.
I'm sick of hearing subjective for objective. The one that really bugs me is "between you and I." Argh! I cringe. I try not to, but it's so horrible.
