"Me and Susan went to see the new Julia Roberts movie."
which sounds better to us strangers? a significant other.

AMEN - my pet peeve is people who start telling me long stories and ONLY use the proper name of people i don't know but never indicate their relationship:
"Me and Mary were at Tina's house talking about Joe"
"Who the HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE!!!" I say.
