Or how about when people say something like, "Me and my boyfriend" when it's, "My boyfriend and I."
lol I think the many years of Catholic school Grammar classes are starting to take their toll on me. :[

OMG. While reading the paper this morning I came across a word I have been mispronouncing my whole life, on those occasions I use the word. And that word is "cavalcade."
I have been pronouncing it "calvacade." Dear lord, I hope nobody noticed.

A lot of people also mispronounce "cavalry" and say "calvary".
Catholic school grammar classes do pay off!
