Maybe the reason literacy rates are so low in the south is that you are all being taught incorrectly?

I wouldn't normally give such an a-hole response, but this is easily verified in 5 seconds with Google.

When in doubt as to what pronoun to use, I opt for "a-hole".

It is gender neutral and usually quite accurate.

Can’t remember what pronouns someone uses? Just call everybody “dawg”.


Be a man.

I got my first email last week where the guy listed his preferred pronouns in his signature. I got a good chuckle out of it.




I've received 2 or 3. I remember when I used to think it was weird that people would put the 'please do not print this email' disclaimer in their signature line. Now they're putting pronouns. What could possibly be next?

Identifying as from this planet or extra terrestrial is the only other possibility.
