... (with a nod to Word Salad Sarah) I would love to know why people, who otherwise speak reasonably well, say "Me and him went to the movies," but would never say "Me went to the movies."

I have also heard an increasing number of people make a possessive out of I", as in "John and I's vacation." Talk about fingernails on a chalkboard - yeeeeeeeeeeeesh!

I wish this thread were 200 replies long. I love stuff like this.
