Ok, I KNOW I am going to be slapped by a bunch of people here, but....

I often refer to a /24 (anywhere in the space) as a "class C". I also  
call the thingie on my digital watch an LCD display,  the thing that  
stops breaks from locking the ABS system and the number I type into  
the ATM machine my PIN number.  Oh yeah, my DLT tape drive is  
connected to a SCSCI interface.

Yup, all of the above are technically incorrect (ok, most of them are  
just redundant), but I do it anyway, and I am going to carry on doing  
it, so there!
