      I try to not nitpick people's language and stuff, but this ones too good to ignore

        Likely he used a voice input method.

        I started using one of those recently to save some typing and it's annoying how often it gets words wrong. But when you've got a fractured finger it's hard to type correctly.

            Entretien (crois que c'est le mot) du vélo, et travailler en maison. Je vais cuisiner le dîner avec ma petite amie plus tard.

      through honorifics like sir, ma'am, miss, mister, etc.

        That makes sense, but they're very easy to avoid if you're not sure. I rarely use them. Especially from the customer's perspective, they're not at all needed.

    Meanwhile normal well-adjusted people would just apologize and correct themselves in three seconds if they accidentally misgender someone

      So many of these screeds are obviously transphobes who have never met a Trans person, making up a story for themselves.

        I overheard some liberals in the local Starbucks whispering rumors of the Transabteilung, the goons who appear from the shadow to beat your kneecaps with baseball bats if you even show a hint of consideration of using the wrong pronouns.

    Which of English's many second person pronouns should I use when addressing a trans person?? :ohnoes:

    I'm pissing my pants as I forget I could simply refer to the person in front of me as "you".

      "you" is a gender-neutral pronoun, how am i supposed to parse what this orwellian newspeak means???

        i

        Excuse me?

        If you can't find a way to gender your first person pronouns you're an SJW.

    walk directly up to another person, make eye contact

    "Could I have a coffee, please?"

    The server unmasks, revealing themselves as Stalin.

    "Вы забыли правильное местоимение."

    I read the Twitter thread a little further, and essentially it had nothing to do with ordering the coffee. This guy's dumbass wife wanted to condescend the employee for being new to another employee. Wtf. Too :brainworms: about trans people to use the word "they" what the actual fuck.

    what second person pronouns are YOU using to talk to people moron? English ain't a gendered language, if YOU want to talk to someone YOU can just say "YOU", like "what pronouns do YOU prefer?"

    oh but YOU actually wanted to gossip didn't YOU, YOU little shit. Time for YOU to take a little vacation up North :gulag:

    What's super fucking funny is that this made up story took place in Montréal. You typically don't use gendered pronouns at all when talking about strangers in French.

    They fear someone being as abusive to them over a simple mistake as they are. They've been told that the frothing transes will cancel you just for using the wrong pronoun, and it resonates with their desire to make servers cry over bringing too few sets of silverware.

    This sounds more like a transphobic person got absolutely triggered that they had a trans server at a cafe then went to the internet to contrive an absolutely bullshit situation so they could write something nominally transphobic but plausibly deniable to their liberal fuck friends.

    "wanted to engage the individual" is just the Felix copspeak bit. What's got to be going through your mind that you would come up with that phrase to describe the act of... talking to someone? Yeah, I'm tactically engaging a trans-style individual, over.
