I've read about people's difficulties learning German. From what I understand every grammatical rule has so many exceptions it just as well not be a rule.

Then theres English, with "I before E, except after C." Weird.

You might like this QI video about I before E except after C. Always gets me laughing.

Well some rules have more exceptions than actual words that follow the rule...

Basically you have to learn everything by heart.
