Ditto all that have been listed. A big one for me is usage of "their" where it should be "they're" - if you're going to mess it up, at least use "there." Your vs. you're is pretty ugly, too. Of course, none of those are grammatical.

I'm still peeved by people who say "me and __" instead of "__ and me" or "__ and I." I've heard that they've accepted the other way as essentially correct, but it will always bug me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Best rule of thumb is to drop the first person from there and see how it sounds, like so:

"Why don't you come with I?"

Therefore the correct sentence would be "Why don't you come with Jennifer and me?"

There's nowhere I can't reach.
