  1. So, they get to make things up as they go along.
    In that case, my pronoun shall be “Genghis Khan, leader of men, slayer of warriors, despoiler of nations and ravisher of women”, and I shall take great offense when people fail to address me properly.

  2. Pronouns ? Hell, my wife had a 1st grader whose NAME was Agoddess … yes, mommy named her a-goddess. Talk about putting pressure on your own kid ! Imagine what she has to live up to ? BTW … Agoddess didn’t get off to such an immortal start in the First Grade … barely avoiding having to repeat the grade.

  3. The today’s children is the father of the future.The government should provide some effective steps for developing the environment where thet can grow with learning a lot of thing like the GradeMiners.com Review which will make them creative.It is our moral duty to make an environment for them to learn.

  4. Bullplop.
    It is the parents’ moral duty to properly rear their kids. No-one else’s: Not the taxpayers’, not the government’s. The parents’. Period.

  5. Should come with a warning. Your having to compose something WHILE IN CLASS may show that you are not the author of those take home essays.
    On the other hand, this kind of crap goes on all the time. Years and years and years ago, I wrote a paper for a political science class about problems with succession to the president of the U.S. after a catastrophic event. I don’t remember the details of the problem but it did exist and my paper was decent and relevant and got an A. A few years later a friend needed a paper for the same class and I offered him mine. He got an F because during the interim congress had made the problem go away…… one of the dangers of not actually doing the work yourself.
    P.S. The CAPTCHA on this site really sucks.

  6. Just wait until someone chooses “Grand Dragon” as their personal pronoun. Then pass the popcorn.

  7. Ok i play along, I demand to be addressed as:
    “Mein Fuhrer”
    Failure to address me properly is an insult to my delicate sensibility, a nonaggression and the university is required to provide a safe space for me. Also in the event that a person not address me properly they will be required to check their privilege (whatever the f*** that means).

  8. My pronouns of preference are:
    Your Majesty
    Your Royal Majesty
    Her Royal Majesty (or H.R.M.)
    My Queen
    I shall also expect a red carpet to be rolled out for me wherever I go. Get to it, Pronoun Committee!

  9. I changed my mind from now addresses me as:
    The Lord Humungus! The Warrior of the Wasteland! The Ayatollah of Rock and Rolla!

  10. If they had some sort of unrealistic pronoun and I was a tenured professor I’d refer to them all as ‘the dickless’ so-and so.
    Then I’d grade them on their reaction, after which I’d simply refer to them as a ubiquitous ‘Billie’.
