My pet peeve is “yourself”

To me, "Yourself" comes in second to "myself".

E.G., "To myself, "Yourself" comes in second to "myself""

What in heck happened to "you", "I" and "me"? Not weighty enough for the self-esteem kids?

What about “pairs”?

Virtually every eyeglass commercial offers “two pairs”.

I was always taught the plural of “pair” was “pair”.
