to start a war against myself?

[dancingwithmyselfandthecat]

As in the word myself. Not my actual self obviously.

This is a sore point because I am using estate agents at home and in the business at the moment so I hear this word being misused all the fucking time.

Myself: a word which illustrates an action being done by you and to you. I dress myself. I wash myself. I make myself orgasm. Geddit?

NOT a posher or more polite version of either me or I. Both are entirely acceptable words in their own right provided they are used correctly.

I the person doing the action. I go to the party. DH and I go to the party.

Me: either a person having an action done to them, or the term used following a preposition.

DH loves me. DH goes to the party with me. It is a secret between DH and me.

How is this so fucking difficult? And AIBU to thwack the next person to misuse myself?

Misuse of "myself" makes me clench my bum cheeks.

I'm with you all the way.... But we'll lose, in the same way we lost to "impacted"... Shudder.....

Clearly this is a very important matter to yourself.

I completely agree.

Super yourself will get THWACK for that too!

I think you're perfectly entitled to your opinion, however, myself? I think it sounds much more elegant.

This is a lie. I HATE that word. Urgh.
