Language police woman speaking :-)

Count me in on this one. Man, I'm SO sick of raising these sorts of objections and being told that no one cares because the meaning was understood (despite the linguistic, grammatical, or punctuation errors committed.)

I dropped off my youngest at preschool today and overheard a mom using "blank and me" to the lead teacher. I stood where the assistant teacher could hear me and said "That should be 'blank and I,'" leaving her chuckling. It must be nice to have an advanced degree in French and be a preschool teacher (hubby with BUCKS.)
