No. They're either doing it on purpose, or don't get it. Either way, there's no graceful way of correcting it, as it's probably ingrained. I used to work with a woman who always said Expresso. I said, it's espresso. She said, whatever. That never changed.

Also, the phrase is, "for shits and grins." She would actually say to customers, "well, just for chagrins, let's add up the figures." I told her that, chagrins is not what she thinks it means and the phrase is "for shits and grins." The answer, of course, was "whatever."

I always thought the expression was "for shits and giggles" making both of you wrong.
