I'm pretty good at whose or who's; it's or its; accept or except; than or then; and two, too, or to. I have a problem with there, they're, or their; and especially your and you're.

I actually spelled grammar incorrectly in my first draft. Thank God for that little check mark with ABC.

Oh I have no problem calling officials officious. My peeve is the idea of "overly officious," as if one's aim were to be just officious enough.
