Frustrations with grammar

Frustrations with grammar
I just watched an episode of Judge Judy. Whenever the defendant answered a question, she would say "her and me..." in reference to discussions that she had with the plaintiff.

I'm sorry, but this is a basic grammar skill, one learned in elementary school.
It is not "her and me had this agreement."
You're on national TV. At least try to sound educated. So how about "I had an agreement with the plaintiff." Or, "I had an agreement with her."
"Her and me" sounds like you never got past kindergarten.
