Preface

It slightly increases load times (especially large pages) and could possibly break some pages so I advise against using @include *

I will add idiomatic expressions (and their often-used incorrect variants) and frequent stupidity to the script periodically.

Leave a note in discussions with requests for additions. Writing out the entire expression in this form will get it added quickly: "regex":"replacement",

Purpose

Fixes some common spelling, grammar, and idiomatic expression mistakes.
Inspired by http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/11275, this will work on any page you @include.
