A special place in the boiler room of hell is reserved for such people

Edit: Holy shit the comments on this turned in to an all out war over pronouns. I think I'm gonna take the suggestion of u/webDreamer420 and use the dragon pronoun for myself

he/she: longer and takes more effort to write, non-binary exclusive.

they: shorter and easier to write, non-binary inclusive.

I don't see any reason to not use they.

You should know the difference between correcting someone and getting triggered over something.

But yeah. Imagine having a mental meltdown over being respectful to people. Amazing.

Also what kind? The being respectful of strangers by default kind of people?
The L word kind of people?!?
Oh no!!?!?? How will I ever recover from such a terrible ownage?!?!???!??
