I, myself, am not sure, but myself am Merkan and it makes me laugh to hear someoneself refer to themselves as themselves. Usually a simple "me" or "us" would do, but I, myself, hypothesize that the uneducated think using a longer word makes themselves appear to be more sophisticated than themselves actually are.
I, myself, suspect that the custom of using a reflexive grammatical construct was imported from other languages where such constructs are normal.

Beer is in fridge and Pizzas are being ordered ... for me this is a treat (I live a very sheltered life)!

Sheltered? You mean you have a lean-to rather than living out in the fields?

"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate that 12,240 calories (12 oz. x 1,020 cal./oz.) are extracted from the body in the process of drinking a can of beer."
... this is excellent news!

The beauty of the gin diet is that in as little as a week you can lose several days.

We both with Death are always on a Diet. Don't you see?
The main idea of our Diet is eating the only the main 3 group of foods: Beer, Pizza and Sweets.
It works great
