You end up being right at the coos tail when disembarking 'cos no bugger will pass your case back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdcal Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 People e-mailing who have added their pronouns to their e-mail signatures. Why? Why do I need this information? I have your name from the e-mail so if/when I reply, that’s what I am going to use. I am not going to start talking about you to anyone else and if I did, I’d use your name. The name you just gave me. The only time I have seen anything like this is either ambiguous names ie Mr Morgan surname or ms Chris surname (not related) or someone drops the title Dr in there to show off that they are educated enough to read the content but not necessarily educated enough to understand it.I work on a system that can give you a title but a choice of male or female for the gender. I am awaiting the first angry email over assumptions.The thing is we reply in an informal manner aimed at looking friendly and approachable. So not dear Mr oblivious but more hi Neil type thing and it's only letters that do titles making the whole exercise entirety pointless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things getting sliced and folk running over water melons in cars. I do quite like the videos of things getting thrown into an industrial shredder tbh. Just watched a video of twenty disposable lighters encased on a block of jelly get chucked in. Hugely enjoyable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
