You don't go to Xerox something. You go to photocopy something.

You shouldn't ask for a Coke when all they have is Pepsi.

It's not plexiglass, it's acrylic.
License is not plural.
Cars have engines, not motors.

What about General Motors? They make cars, which have engines. So that really doesn't fit into GM's bill, huh?

Yeah, the motor one is more of a pet peeve than actually being incorrect. Or is it just semantics? IMO, motors are electric and engines use combustion.

but motor boats are combustion, right? There might be a large and broader definition of motor than just electric.

There is. I admitted I was wrong and it's just a pet peeve. Btw, IMO means "in my opinion".
A motor is, by definition, anything that turns energy into motion. So, again, I'm wrong. Happy?

"Supposably" is not a word. It's "supposedly".
I also hate "especially" when people say "eXpecially"
