Frankly, I prefer the eggcorn simply because of the wonderful image it conjures up, and a quick google search reveals that the rest of the english-speaking civilization seems to agree with me. dribble: 68,500; drivel: 67,000.
Google News reveals at least one minor news source using the eggcorn: “I fear the uninhibited television that I enjoy will be reduced to mindless, opinion-less dribble if something is not done.” (http://www.kinston.com/SiteProcessor.cf … l%20Sports)
