Taxi is alright lol. I think, he speaks quebecois, so I can dig why he has an issue with the perceived "misuse" of the language.

Wrong use of their, there and they're.

People who say they want to lend something from you.

Affect and effect.

May I and can I.

It's and its.

There's plenty of these silly mistakes that I tend to notice but I certainly wouldn't say it "grinds my gears"

What really grinds my gears is a bad throwout bearing.

"Casted"

It is not a past-tense verb. The word you are looking for is generally "cast".

I don't understand. Taxi is pissed about people using an English word properly? Is that what's going on?

Faggot.

Seriously? Are you phobic or something or do you degrade others needlessly to make your dick feel bigger? This one came up recently in conversation and I've decided I loathe it completely.

Oh and Taxi, I like this website very much for looking up odd terms:

^ This. And using "gay" to describe something you don't like. There are so many better, more descriptive, less offensive ways to express your distaste. Why do people need to hate on others so much?
