Not the same thing but I can't stand it when someone tells you that so-and-so is "out to lunch". "Out to lunch" means they're crazy, doesn't it? It does where I come from. I have asked my secretary to tell people I am "at lunch" not "out to lunch".
Also, "out of pocket" means out of money/broke, not unavailable. At least it does in my world.
It makes my ears hurt when someone says "route" as "rowt" not "root". And "roof" pronounced "ruff".
