Is everybody really this stupid?

Example:

http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3/praia_mole_beach.jpg

WRONG: "Steph and I at the beach"

Correct: "Me and Steph at the beach."



The use of "I" in photo captions is disturbing to me. Would you ever say "I at the Beach"? No, you would not. You'd say "Me at the beach." So there. Insert friend's name and all is good. The other usage makes you sound like your trying too hard to pretend to be edumacated.

Discuss, Heathen's!

Some of the grammar on this board is worse than that!! I always pick that shit out. Pretty annoying. The thing that irritates me the most is when someone doesn't know when to use: there, their, or they're.

heathens is a plural, not a possessive, so your apostrophe is superfluous! *snigger*

and you are grammatically correct if the photo caption is predicated on the "here is a picture of," motif. so "me" is the proper case, not i. technically, she's correct, even tho' it sounds awkward. it would definitely be better as "steph and myself at the beach." or something.
