Guilty. I fixed that leak now though. (Anyway, I'm not a native speaker, so it's not as bad...)

Excessive/incorrect use of punctuation, especially commas.

Perfect example taken from good2cu's website:

"DonButtons, is a balla for real and recently purchased a Lamborghini, at 20."


Also, people who use your instead of you're and mix up their with there.

"Literally" - used for exaggeration, but rarely ever used to mean literally. I am watching past Super Bowl highlights now - and the narrator just said "he was literally facing a Catch 22" - really, like a copy of the famous novel was on the defensive line?

This isn't a grammatical error. It's a word use "error", if you can call it that.

I dunno, are you the kind of people who when some teenager says something is "wicked", go "INCORRECT WORD USE SIR, WICKED MEANS, AND I QUOTE, 'morally bad in principle or practice'"? Words change. The way that commentator used the word is bizarre, but I sometimes say stuff to my friends like "That beat was literally insane". I'm well aware of what "literally" means, and I'm choosing to use it in another way. So what?

not really grammatical but pronunciation, people who pronounce idea as eye-deer

I find misuses of you're/your and their/they're/there irritating. It's jarring to read, sometimes i have to reread the sentence to make sense of it.

Not a grammatical error but people (on THIS site) who say ftw, ergh.

[ChrisV]

Oh, and people who think "alot" is a word.
