How is that fail? "Either Bryce or myself." is the shortened form of "Either Bryce or myself can help you." and "myself" is a reflexive pronoun, so there's got to be another noun or pronoun for it for it to reflect upon, which has to be the same noun or pronoun that the reflexive pronoun is referring to. In that case, there isn't. Now, "Either Bryce or I can help you." fits properly.

Because when you are talking about another person and yourself, you have a choice of "I" or "me". The rule of thumb to determine which one you use, you would remove the inclusion of the other person. So as Drew wrote it, it would actually be "Bryce or me". The way you revised it in post #6 is correct.

I know **** all about grammer, but I know that one.

And this is the worst (lamest) off-topic we have ever gone.

Except that you wouldn't say "Me can help you.", you would say "I can help you." Adding Bryce back into the statement, "Bryce or I can help you.", and truncating again leaves "Bryce or I."

Wow, this took a **** of a turn. :-D

Sorry about your door ding homie! Lemme know who you go with and how their quality of work is. My WRX buddy has one to get fixed.

"So, either Bryce or myself." Is a sentence fragment. The proper grammar would be: "Any dealership can help you with that; so, either bryce or myself." In which case the requirements for a reflexive pronoun would have been met.

Reflecting on the dealership, so if Drew is a dealership that can talk. :-D

We can go grammar-style another time.

Colin, I didn't mean to **** all over your thread. I apologize.

Enough of the grammar faggery, so when you say 'help you with that', do you mean 'help as in free' or 'help as in bend over please sir' ... ???

as in $40-50 depending on the size and location. Have seen some as low as $20. Sometimes if I can be nice to the dent guy, he hooks it up as long as the job ain't too big.
