I got a load of chalk, felt-tip markers and paint from friends one Christmas in a thinly-veiled attempt to get me involved with their plan to vandalise the toilets at the local park. My downfall: Signing my name. Tell us your stories of anti-social behaviour.
Thanks to Bamboo Steamer for the suggestion

And you would appear to have some grounds from to argue your case.
Initially I thought you were a raving loon for thinking that "one" was akin to the "real" personal pronouns, but the more I think of it, it does kind of fit in with the rest:
I/me/my/mine
You/you/your/yours
He/him/his/his
It/it/its/its
One/one/ones/ones
Interesting.
Maybe it's because it's a fairly modern thing, and was added to the list a long time after Old/Middle English?
