Kyrd, it was perfectly correct for your meaning(...)
Says the person with a big grammar problem in his signature.
oioi, there is no problem in my sig.


I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi here, but... TiYlER... aren't you american? :p aren't you supposed to.. know your language? or is that optional nowadays?

I don't mind when people make mistakes while speaking/writing in their 2nd or 3rd or whatever language... but when they fail using their mother tongue... that's sad :(
What did I do now?

True. What are you talking about, Havoc?

You said that "have a sit" is correct.

I meant I was sure Kyrdua meant it as slang. Of course it isn't grammatically correct, I'm not retarded.

Don't tell me you guys mean the whole, "2nd person then I" thing?

"I wish we could be together forever and ever... just TiYlER and I."

Um...Kyrdua didn't have any problem with us correcting him, why should you, TiY? ;D

And seriously, what the hell is wrong with TiY's sig?

"Him and me" is correct.

"Him and me" is correct.

That is what I thought as well. Unless they are talking about something else.

Havoc seems to think I have a grammatical problem in my signature. I can't find it.

Grammatically, "Just him and me" is incorrect, that's all. It should be "Just me and him" or maybe even "Just him and I."

But whatever.

I don't think it is. It sounds slightly odd, and you're unlikely to hear anyone say it like that normally, but I think it is grammatically correct. It's just everyone usually says "me and him", so it sounds strange when someone says it the other way round.

Both are correct. Placing the 3rd person before 1st person is the "polite" form though. I learned to use the polite form as a default, so that is how I write.

Never, ever say "him and I" or "he and me". I/he/she = Nominative, me/him/her = Objective. Do not mix these two cases together here.

also, tiyler's sig has no errors, as far as I see.
