I don't use "singular 'they'" anymore, under any circumstance.

Word of the OT: triggered

They/Them is such a beautiful word. Great choice for word of the year.

The only people worse than the people who insist we be ultra-progressive are the people who complain about it constantly and give them the reaction they want.

Good thing I live in Louisiana where I don’t care, will never use the word, and will continue to pity those with mental illnesses such as people that don’t know if they’re a boy or a girl.

It is "nonbinary" because it's plural you idiots. Fml

They/Them is singular. Please watch how you use pronouns as it can be offensive to people.

Sorry, we will be more careful. Also, please don't call me (us) "you," as I prefer "Zeus." TIA for being respectful.

You’re right, this thread is a perfect example of what’s wrong with us.

Other terms that were widely searched for in 2019 were "quid pro quo," "impeach," "crawdad" and "egregious."
Also in that article - thought this was funny.

Crawdad? Who the hell says that?

What’s funny is that since the “word of the year” is based on search data
And since I’m pretty sure this guy had to look up this term since - based on his attitude towards the “movement” - he doesn’t seem to come across this in his personal life too often
What he’s actually mad at, in a small way, is himself.
Well, himself and Webster’s for adhering to raw data.
Last year’s word was “justice” and I’m sure he was fine with that.
Strange times indeed.

There is a popular book with that word in the title- wouldn’t be surprised the book publishers and dictionary publishers are the same.

There's a popular book with Crawdad is in the title. Maybe that's why?
If crawdad is on the list, I would like to propose coonass.

Oh yeah. My mother in law was reading it when we were there Easter and said it started off good but got lame.

Non-binary pronouns in our culture are anti-science and dictatorial.
