Trivial - I never say "I want ...".

I say "I'd like ..."

Also Trivial for anyone who doesn't speak English :) But I hope the point hasn't been missed.
searchyc.com for: RiderOfGiraffes "I want" - 36 results.
How do you get searchyc.com to honor the quotation marks? It never seems to do so when I try.

Having said that, I've tried the search via a number of routes and got about 35 or 40, but many are similar to this one:

  > ... and when I want to send stuff ...
which I don't feel is in the spirit of the original question.

Having said that, yes, I've probably used the words "I want." I probably mis-spoke myself and intended to say "I only use 'I want' for effect, or when it's not in the sense you intend."

But that's post hoc and I'll hold my hands up and say I was wrong.

Rider! :)
