Another thing I've noticed is that the really basic verbs, such as "to be",
"to do", etc. are the ones that tend to be the most irregular in any language.
That's probably because they were the first ones needed, before the rules
of grammar had formed.

"Briefness is the soul of wit."  (Wait a minute, that doesn't sound right...)

Don't you hate rhetorical questions?

Yes, I have the same problem.  It's especially bad when someone who doesn't
care about precision speaks ambiguously; I'll often interpret their statement
in a way that is valid, but not what they meant.  (I must confess that
sometimes I'll do this deliberately as a form of revenge on days when I've
heard one too many things like "I could care less" when they mean the exact
opposite, or "<n> times greater than" when they mean "<n> times as great as".)
