For the past 15 years or so, every night before bedtime I would proclaim “Time to hit the shack!” or “I’m going to hit the shack”. In reality it is a “sack” that you hit, not a “shack”.

For all intensive purposes, they're the same. (I'd been saying "intensive" instead of "intents and" until my mid 20s) *edit: Fixed a spelling mistake. It's still early here... :-p

    oof!! yes, embarrassing on my part for sure... it's still super early on a Monday here. I do know that it's "intents", that was just my fingers typing out the wrong word... corrected my comment.

      I thought you did it on purpose as a nod to the OP making the same kind of mistake. Should run with that story

        My original comment was "I'd been saying "intensive" instead of "intense and" until my mid 20s" I even had the "correct" version wrong! The first was a nod to op, the second was a goof on my part. :-p

I had a colleague some years ago, who consistently said 'add hook' instead of 'ad hoc'. I never had the heart to correct him.

The real question is for those people who heard you make this proclamation.
