The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

[Aeson]

I'm supposed to be packing and getting my stuff together for the game day. I have most of it done but I keep stopping and reading message boards.

I need Aurora to tell me to get my butt in gear. She is the Queen after all.

 

[Aurora]

Get it moving Aeson! When are you leaving to go there? Are you working tomorrow?

Thanks

Nope. I am off for three whole days. I'm leaving around 9am. We hope to get there in time to get to the room and freshen up and relax before the cookout at Rel's house.

Cool. Whom are you traveling with?

 

[Aeson]

My friend is meeting me here and he is driving my mom's Ford Escape. Plenty of room and ok gas mileage. he's my oldest friend. My first real DM and a good friend. Too bad you won't get to meet either of us this weekend.

You used "whom" correctly!

Enlighten us. What is the proper use of "whom"?

Of course she used it correctly. She went to private school.

I did too, but I didn't learn it there. Most people still use it incorrectly.

Basically: 'who' is a subject, 'whom' isn't.
'Whom' is also used in prepositional phrases (because it isn't a subject). " ... for whom..." "... with whom..."

Which is the incorrect use? Using who in the wrong place or using whom in the wrong place?

I take it I was the subject in her sentence.

I will never be a writer. My English skills are poor.
