As an English teacher, this joke deserves an A+!

You would have overlooked the poor use of punctuation and capitalization. I mean, how good of a teacher could you really be.

If there is an english teacher who thinks that "it" is the only singular non gendered personal pronoun in the english language, I really hope they go back to school.

Yeah, this is a joke thread on Reddit. Relax. Besides, dipshit, did the joke say anything about ALL the other pronouns? Nope.

Actually yes, the joke did say something about all the other pronouns. It said "the singular third person pronoun other than he and she," which implies that there's only one.

I can imagine the kids listing off a ton of other pronouns that aren't "it" and the teacher has to keep adding them to the list of words they aren't looking for.

What's up with the Nashville shooting? Legit question, there's honestly too many mass shootings in America for me to even try to keep up with.

The shooter was trans. Right wingers are amplifying that fact all over twitter, acting as if one shooter out of the thousands weve had since Columbine is an indictment of trans people as a whole.

Thanks for the info, I'm sure I'm gonna run into some twisted rhetoric in the coming days. I'm betting there's gonna be a lot of talk about so-called "mental health" since they're so fond of equating being trans with mental illness.
