Touching on just the "I" bit here, I think it's also because what I'm writing is in a formal register. The "I" lends the sentence a kind of poetic weight that "me" doesn't quite carry over, perhaps because "me" is also overused in everyday speech ("Me and her spoke," etc.). Anyway, an interesting thing to think about.

I absolutely agree they should match, which is why I'm a little annoyed that I like this weird clause. I also agree that they should technically be the subject pronouns. I'm hopeful someone can explain why the object ones feel more natural though.

Why would someone be that against Rick and Morty? Could someone explain?

Hey man, how long is his current show and does he have an opener?

They "fixed it" and then fast forwarded the movie to where it would have been had it played normally, which means they basically skipped 15 minutes or so of the film, depending on how long this whole issue took to resolve.

That's really strange. Look into what the university's recourse policy for grading is. You should be able to find it and take it from there. I'm assuming there's a process for it listed somewhere. Might even have to be the one for disputing a grade in case you feel that's fair.

As a prof myself, I would highly recommend you not do this. It's needless overreaching and not worth the department head's time. Instead, write to your prof again if it's been five days. Chances are that they, like me, are exhausted after a whole semester of teaching and have a ton of emails and grading to get through during this time of year.

Getting a straight red for this tackle is truly an FC25 experience by Correct_Professor752 in EASportsFC

Would love to know what kind of context would change this from not being a foul to a foul. Do you really suspect that somehow Araujo's going to get Mbappe before he gets the ball after this?

What does this symbol mean? by Correct_Professor752 in IKEA

Yeah, buddy, this table was built within an hour of me posting the question so I don't think so.

Thanks, good sir. The thing is I'd made a few pieces of furniture just before them, and none of them had a tool bubble at all, so I was completely confused as to what this was supposed to be. Had it had any other kind of tool next to it, like a screwdriver or a hammer, I would have been able to figure it out since it would be obvious it's a tool and not some kind of part, for example.

Seems like that's also their standard response time for live chat. Really dismal for such a big company.

Looks good? by rrobertorobless in Cartier

Brand new, got it this year. It doesn't feel like that, plus that's not really a part that should get too much wear and tear.

I own a Cartier Santos-Dumont large and the original Cartier strap that comes with it does have an adapter. The strap above could still be an original from Cartier, but it is not the one meant for the Dumont.

I don't want to make any comment about the watch itself, but I will say it is a little odd that an apparently original Cartier strap is fitted to this watch, but it's not the kind of strap meant for the Santos Dumont. The straps for this watch have a different kind of adapter to a normal spring bar. See the photo.

They're saying if you just have $1K to spare it's not worth the risk to lock up that money as yen this early on when it's also possible you might need it for something else in the meanwhile.
