I chuckled.

>>8192210
>this joke walked anywhere but /lit/ and no one cared

>>8191882
I exhaled out of my nose slightly harder than usual
6/10

this sentence doesn't use a gender neutral pronoun.

>disagreeing with the oxford comma

this joke walked into /lit/ and i idgaf'd

>>8192287
"one" is a gender neutral pronoun

>>8192210
its a bad joke and it will never be a meme

>>8192210
I got it but I didn't think it was funny or worth a reply. It's bit of a shitpost, yeah?

>>8192287

It's just as important as correctly using there/their/they're

>>8191882
But there is no passive voice in this sentence...right? And the gender-neutral pronoun I'd supposed to be 'no one'?

>>8192287
it doesnt use the passive voice either you noob. it's just a dumb joke probably intended for the same folks who think grammar sticklers are actual white supremacists.

This is pretty good.

>>8192210

I've seen those English dramas too.

Always makes me think of a cute blonde I made out with in old Boltzmanns office (I Viennese). We got drunk, she took me home and as soon we entered her bad, I had to excuse myself and then went to the toilet, vomited and fell asleep

>>8194560
Well, ain't that fine and dandy?

>>8191882
There is literally nothing wrong with using "they" as a gender neutral pronoun.

>>8194595
That's what they all say and now look at them.

Also how stupid is OP for not knowing what the passive voice is? It is thought OP I'd very stupid.

where can i find an academic bar?

>>8194648
Any bar can be an academic bar if you know what to look for.

>>8194595

I prefer 'it'.
