I grinch when I hear someone say for example " Me and my buddies..." If they would only listen they should hear how dumb that sounds. The correct statement would be "My buddies and I". Or when I should be used they use the word 'myself'

I am sure you know what I mean.

well it depends on what is going on in the sentence, if it is: “She fed me” then the correct sentence would be “she fed my buddies and me”, if it is “I fed her” then it is “My buddies and I fed her”..............see?

I know you cringe when you hear, "just between you and I".
