    Dickhead(s) should suffice to cover all possibilities.

    An incredibly trivial issue.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,762 ✭✭✭Sheeps


    My prounouns are one/one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 789 ✭✭✭Beanntraigheach


    My pronouns are 'His Imperial Majesty' / 'Your Imperial Majesty'.
    (In informal settings I'll accept 'Sire' in lieu of the second.)

    Solution: 'Thxy' & 'Thxm'.

    Who gives a ****. There are far more important things to worry about in our lives then what some pleb singer wants to call himself. Leave him off, who cares.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    "police are on the lookout for a human, unfortunately we're not allowed tell you that it's a man or woman..."

    "we would like to give you the correct medication, but we can't acknowledge if you're a man or a woman, sorry about that... "

    Hilarious stuff :) you can ask to be identified as whatever you choose, but I wouldn't be holding my breath for it catching on.

    I want to be a tomato! I want to be a tree! Even the music is spot on :P

    I refuse to refer to one person singular as they/them. They are plural pronouns. I'm a grammar nazi, so I'll be referring to 'it'.

    that level of attention seeking navel-gazing is unattractive
