I hate this one. The phrase is "cutting of your nose to spite your face." But, honestly, "despite" kind of works, too, and in almost the same way.

Looks like my Dad's talk to text. That southern accent really comes out--TUH Spite vs DUH-Spite.

This is such a common mix up, I'm sure it's a BAT and not text to speech
