And?

It's always bugged me when someone sitting on an inside seat on the metro says, "this is me" when they'd like you to move so they can get out. I believe the phrase they're looking for is, "excuse me."

"This is me" is a statement. If you would like me to do something, it would behoove you to make (or imply) a request.

This morning, the woman sitting next to me said, "this is my stop." I almost said, 'and?'
