One of the many errors I see is people spelling "lose" as "loose". I suppose its because "choose" is spelled the way it is.

So for the record: "lose" rhymes with "choose", "loose" rhymes with "goose".

Used in a sentence: "I will LOSE my temper if people CHOOSE to live as LOOSE as a GOOSE."

Feel free to address any other common mistakes found here on AFF. If we're going to be legalistic about something, let's be grammar legalists!
In the spirit of legalism...it should be "Queen's English."
