i have one friend that is really proud to know that in many cases you are supposed to say "<other person> and I went to go do something" instead of "<other person> and me" when you're the subject of a sentence. but he blindly applies it across the board because he isnt as smart about grammar as he thinks so he'll say things like "that cake is for <other person> and I" and then argue when i say it's wrong

native english speaker btw. british actually which makes it even richer.

Next time just tell them to repeat the sentence without the < other person> to highlight their stupidity

I say nucl[u]ear
