My daughter keeps watching some itsy bitsy spider video on YouTube & I swear it's Ricky Gervais doing the singing.

It was in the area for a long time, but I guess it took a while for them to grease the landlord's palms enough for him to allow it in his high-rises here.

Is the custom of using the word "me" as an object and "I" as a subject going away? I've noticed them being flipped a lot recently. Or "me" being used in all cases.
I wouldn't say its recent.
Its always been one of those annoying things where the grammar books say to use I in a lot of cases where the natural inclination would be to use me.

I'm trying to think of a situation in which the natural inclination is to use I as an object or me as a subject and am drawing a blank.  Can you help me out?

I got rowdy this morning and made french toast. Delicious!
