English lesson for the day!
Ok smart ladies.......I'm in a debate. I need some feedback on this or even just the right answer. Google isn't helping me too much with my exact question. Perhaps one of you can.
So when describing a set of photos, say on FB, would you title it, "Sarah and me" or "Sarah and I" ?
What do you all think?

Re: English lesson for the day!
I vote for "Sarah and me."
The rule I follow is: if you removed the "Sarah and" part, what would you put? "Me," right? You wouldn't label a photo of just youself "I" (at least, I wouldn't). If it would be "me" by yourself in that context, it would be "Sarah and me" in the same context.
I could be wrong here but my answer is: 'Sarah and me'.
I tend to go the route of removing the other party in the statement ie 'Sarah' in this case and going with what makes the most sense with what's left. So, labelling the set of photos 'I' wouldn't make as much sense as 'Me'.
On the flip side, this sentence would produce a different result:
"Sarah and I had a picnic".
Remove Sarah from the equation and "I had a picnic" is gramatically correct, as opposed to "Me had a picnic".
agreed - with the same logic.

Actually... hmm, I guess it really depends on your sentence structure.

I'm with you Tara, but it again it would depend on the .context
Oh NOES! I cannot be an internet-associate with yourself anymore, until you at least go back to gramma-skool and educate yourself up!
Same goes with you, missy!

See, I thought it was "Sarah and I" as well.
I've literally polled anyone and everyone I can think of besides my friends on FB because the debate is with someone on FB so that wouldn't be nice!
And I'm getting a mixture of opinions.
Ok's, looks like you been and got skooled. We coo now *chest bump* (ok, belly bump from my end).
I did find this, if it helps at all.
"I" is normally the subject pronoun and "me" is the object pronoun. (Nominative and indicative) That is, "I" is used when you are doing the action in the sentence, and "me" when you are receiving it.
Awwww man, my mum's computer is agonizingly slow! What you said! Lol.
This is exactly how I always figure out which is correct.
I've always heard that removal rule too...another vote for "Sarah & me"

LMAO! You are too funny! (Love the belly-bump make-up, too!)
For a title of a photo it should be "Me & Sarah" because you ladies are the object of the picture. "Sarah & I" is what you would use to begin a sentence (you are the subject). "Me & Sarah" is what you would use when you are the object. Side note: You put the other person's name first when beginning the sentence (the "burro" always goes first according to my 6th grade teacher) but you put your name first when you are the object)

You funny lady Tina!
I have no opinion on the I vs. me debate, I can't even spell for godsakes...
