Recently I've noticed more and more people saying things like, "What I was thinking to myself in my head ...".
Am I uniquely surrounded by idiots, or is this redundant overprecision (I mean, duh, where else and to whom else does one think?) becoming prevalent?
(Nothing against b'n'b's college beau, who sounds quite charming.)

My boyfriend in college used to say "my own self". As in, "I'm quite thirsty for a beverage, my own self. I believe I'll have a beer." I found this a charming affectation at the time, my own self.
