More than 50 institutions of higher learning across this great country of ours are planning on celebration the assault on the English language and common sense by celebrating the right of all individuals to choose their own pronouns.
No, this isn’t parody, it’s mass psychosis on of our campuses. More

Great. My preferred pronoun is “Your Most Exalted Excellency.” And if you point out that this is not really a pronoun, consider yourself accused of a micro aggression who is violating my made up Constitutional right to not be offended.
Seems to me October and 17 are ever-poopular with commies.
There will be to many pronouns for people to remember. I would like to help by suggesting they just call themselves IDIOTS!
GTFO
Wyatt, I like it! I however, am going for the much simpler ‘My Lord and Master’ and if anyone complains, I would just refer to their own statement … “celebrating the right of all individuals to choose their own pronouns.”
She/Her: “She is a writer and wrote that book herself. Those ideas are hers. I like both her and her ideas.”
He/Him: “He is a writer and wrote that book himself. Those ideas are his. I like both him and his ideas.”
Translation:
Go F’ yourselves,,,
I feel for anyone pissing their money away by sending their kids to colleges these days. Paying huge sums for your kid to be radicalized and unemployable isn’t a good use of resources.
He! She-it!
I always preferred Supreme Ruler and Omnipotent Deity. I guess you could say I’m just used to it by now.
@Wyatt, @Jack, @LCD – I’ll settle for a simple “Sire”.
A Professor at University of Michigan tried this several years ago. One of the more intelligent students requested he be called “His Majesty” if I recall correctly.
Always get a kick out of it when the local news reports an accident and says one person (singular) was injured and their (plural) condition is unknown.
Here’s their COUSIN

I used “Your Imperial Majesty” in high school many years ago. Ahead of my time, I guess.
@Czar of Defenestration: “Hair’s their cousin”.
(Fixed that for you.)

Why don’t amateur nouns get a day of recognition?
After reading the sleuthing article, I think I’ll be known as Minion.
No. I don’t care what is proclaimed. Just NO.
So what’s wrong with old fashioned pronouns that show respect for whoever or whatever you are or do. Like Mr., Ms. or Mrs., Sir, Ma’am etc. Yea I know white privilege, it seems that the left in trying to make everyone conform and be the same is dividing people according to their worldview, politics, sexual orientation more than they are allowing for real diversity. I prefer to still called Sir or Mr. or even be called bud, bub, hey you than call myself a false phony baloney pronoun that is meaningless. I hate the left, can we call them progtards, liberal pablum pukers, know nothings, nattering nabobs, busybodies etc. etc.
