I'm looking for people like me, who are crazy, fun, and not afraid of life. and one day when I find them, we'll escape, we'll break out of the zoo.

I hate when people swap há and à, ganhaste and ganhas-te, chegamos and chegámos.

What about the use of the objective (or accusative) case with the verb "to be" ? 'Tis told that when a royal procession was passing through a street, two shop girls were watching, and, seeing a familiar face in a car, one exclaimed "Look, look ! It's the Queen! Her friend replied "Garn, it's just Margaret." Whereupon, Her Majesty turned her head and said through the open window, "No, it's me."
Well, what the Queen says is surely the Queen's English, so, I guess that it is now permitted to use the accusative case with "to be".

I'm always shocked when people don't know the different between 'bought' and 'brought'.

"Your retarded!"
- "My retarded?"
That's a classic one.
I'm sure I probably often make mistakes though, especially in regard to prepositions. I might sometimes use the wrong one there.
