    Attention everyone!!! This is really important! Despite what you may have read in the title to this video, that's not actually a forklift! Please don't be confused when watching the video! I couldn't figure out what the fuck was going on until about the third viewing when I noticed... oooohhh... hey! It's a pallet jack! Things started falling into place soon after. So yeah, don't worry, everyone. It will be a much better viewing experience after you realize that I knew the difference. And don't even get me started on cherry pickers. So, anyway, go ahead and watch again now that you know the truth. It's a whole new experience. Also, whenever you see a pallet jack, be sure not to call it a forklift because someone somewhere is a gigantic prick.

About Me

Me is used in many constructions where strict grammarians prescribe I. This usage is not so much ungrammatical as indicative of the shrinking range of the nominative form: me began to replace I sometime around the 16th century largely because of the pressure of word order. I is now chiefly used as the subject of an immediately following verb. Me occurs in every other position: absolutely (who, me?), emphatically (me too), and after prepositions, conjunctions, and verbs, including be (come with me) (you're as big as me) (it's me). Almost all usage books recognize the legitimacy of me in these positions, especially in speech; some recommend I in formal and especially written contexts after be and after as and than when the first term of the comparison is the subject of a verb.


About I:
I enjoy fucking with words.
