Written English and spoken English are surprisingly different animals. Say "finger." Now say "singer." Now say "ginger." They look alike, but they don't sound alike because spoken English is nutty.
I say "Anthony and I," but I don't bat an eye at "Me and Anthony" in speech. Plenty of people say it, and it often has a better rhythm. You'd best believe I turn hostile when I see it written that way, though. It brings out my inner Conan the Grammarian.
IIN to make a grammatical error on purpose for the way it sounds?
