Me myself and I- The grammar of the radio DJ

I know it's a bit anal an' that and I'm not normally a grammar fascist, but almost every DJ I hear speaking on the radio misuses the reflexive pronoun 'myself', and I can't help but correct it in my head. It really annoys myself that I have to do this to me, so please help me by considering the following advice.

This year, can everyone make the effort to say 'me' more often.

You mean ''Myself can't help myself correcting it in myself's head''

Allow myself to introduce myself.

The dreaded (me)me. Infecting grammatical properness since day.
