		<description>Gavin - Thanks for the comments and question.

Actually, the proper way to say the sentence is as follows: 

You actually do some work, as opposed to me, who just pushes paper.

The sentence would not use the word &quot;myself&quot; as a reflexive. The reflexive &quot;myself&quot; requires you to use the word &quot;I.&quot; Clearly the sentence uses &quot;me&quot; and not &quot;I.&quot; As far as the comma goes, to some degree its usage is a matter of preference and style.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;52&#039;,&#039;admin&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;52&#039;,&#039;admin&#039;,&#039;Gavin - Thanks for the comments and question.\r\n\r\nActually, the proper way to say the sentence is as follows: \r\n\r\nYou actually do some work, as opposed to me, who just pushes paper.\r\n\r\nThe sentence would not use the word \&quot;myself\&quot; as a reflexive.

		<description>upon reflection, i think this might be reflexive:
  
&quot;...as opposed to myself, who just pushes paper.&quot;&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;51&#039;,&#039;gavin&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;51&#039;,&#039;gavin&#039;,&#039;upon reflection, i think this might be reflexive:\r\n  \r\n\&quot;...as opposed to myself, who just pushes paper.\&quot;&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Quote&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

		<description>me knows this subject quite well (Hilarious, huh?).  but here&#039;s one that i can&#039;t find a reference for.

&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to me, who just pushes paper.&quot;
--or--
&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to i, who just pushes paper.&quot;

and it gets a little more confusing depending upon whether you consider w/ or w/o the comma.

&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to me who just pushes paper.&quot;

general rule of thumb is &quot;me&quot; after a preposition (in this case &quot;to&quot;), but it&#039;s falling apart.

any thoughts?  gavin&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;50&#039;,&#039;gavin&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Reply&lt;/a&gt;  - &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;50&#039;,&#039;gavin&#039;,&#039;me knows this subject quite well (Hilarious, huh?).  but here\&#039;s one that i can\&#039;t find a reference for.\r\n\r\n\&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to me, who just pushes paper.\&quot;\r\n--or--\r\n\&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to i, who just pushes paper.\&quot;\r\n\r\nand it gets a little more confusing depending upon whether you consider w\/ or w\/o the comma.\r\n\r\n\&quot;you actually do some work, as opposed to me who just pushes paper.\&quot;\r\n\r\ngeneral rule of thumb is \&quot;me\&quot; after a preposition (in this case \&quot;to\&quot;), but it\&#039;s falling apart.\r\n\r\nany thoughts?  gavin&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;Quote&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
