  • The one that really enrages me is when people try to be extra formal so they use the form of:

    "Please show Hatbeard and myself your yawning anus"

    instead of:

    "please show me and Hatbeard your lady-gape"

    It's horrible. It's a hyper-correction because there's a perception that "myself" or "I" is more 'proper' than "me", so people don't use "me" even when it's correct because they don't want to say something childish. Embrace the 'me', people. Embrace, er, me. Embrace. Um. Wait, no, I don't mean it that way. Please don't be creeped out :(
    +100 and the irritating tautology people use when discussing themselves. Ie those who say 'me, myself' or 'me, personally' or 'I myself' as in 'Me, personally, I prefer cycling in winter...'. One word will do people!!!
