What gripes me more than interduce is the fact that most times the words following the word are grammatically incorrect.
There is a vast difference between "let me introduce the audience to Joe Schmo" and let me introduce Joe Schmo to the audience." Most of the time the speaker will use the former phrase when he or she really means the latter.
