This is how I keep them separated in my head:

Affect (verb): To have an influence on or to produce a change in someone or something
Effect (verb): To bring about a change or a result
Effect (noun): The change that results
Affect (noun): This one is a little obscure, but it is related to the word "affection"

Some of my grammar pet peeves:

Using the word "less" to mean "fewer"
Saying "for all intensive purposes"
Pronouncing "contra" and "intro" as "conner" and "inner"
Using "alibi" to mean "excuse" (this one is debatable)
Saying "in lieu of" when you really mean "in light of"

Anyone else got any?
