I keep hearing the pronoun "myself" being misused. Just this morning, I heard a caller misuse it on Cities 97. Let me make this easy. In a mirror, I see my reflection: I see MYSELF. So, Myself is a REFLEXIVE Pronoun since it is a mirror to the eye (I). Get the pun??
It is therefore incorrect to say: "Sam, would you like to go to the game with Jack and myself?"
It is correct to say: "I am so upset with myself for not studying for the test."
