bought/brought
The latter is a peculiarly English thing I think and it annoys the hell out of me. There's no need for it! "I brought a CD in HMV today." Jesus...

I have always hated the word "uni" as an abbreviation for university, but that's my problem.
There's a bloke I know who's sharp, bright, passionate and motivated and he thinks the 1st person plural imperfect of "to be" is "we was". I so so so want to correct him!
I used the word "actioning" earlier. It totally fitted the context, but that's no excuse. Please kill me.
