When people use "I" instead of "Me". Seems people do this to try and sound fancier

Ex: Call Bob and I later.

Amen. Drives me nuts.


It's the "and" that throws them off. They would never say "Call I later".

Worse is when they incorrectly refer to themselves as "myself."

Ex: Bob and myself went to the store.


I have to work with nurses a lot. For some reason many of them pronounce centimeter as "sontimeter."
