I have to admit I am quite bad for this. And it's always that it comes out of my mouth I immediately say to myself "not sure if that is correct, you better check that" and then I google it and half the time I got it backwards. 

I just said on a call where I was informed when I didnt attend a call last night that people were saying "he is probably in the pub already" and I responded "my reputation exceeds me" Embarrassed
