    Okay, now I am curious though. Was this line of conversation purely about grammar or do you see something derogatory/emasculating in using "they," or do you see it as some cultural statement to use "they?" Just trying to understand.

    How this didn't end up on To Catch a Predator is beyond me. Missed opportunity for that show.

    What do you people have against Alex Morgan’s ass? It’s the finest ass. But instead you’d rather look at a mugshot of some dude.

    You previously stated how unimportant this stuff is to you. It's not important to me either. I have no idea why we are still talking about it.

    I found it odd that you used the pronoun "they" when talking about someone we all know is a "he." It made me question whether Sab had actually changed his pronouns, so I asked.

    You then pretended not to know the gender of the person we were all talking to/about, which led us down the grammatical path.

    Is any of this information new to you? You've been at the forefront of all information and misinformation about this event for as long as I can remember.

    That right there is how you get Dahmer’d. Chinese food and sit in a tinted window charger drinking brewskies with someone you just met on the internet

    I'm not pretending, I don't know them. It seems you just don't know that "they/them" can apply to an individual. Okay. https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/grammar/singular-they

    On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate his yum yum sauce?

    A group of people, including Sab and me, had been posting in the endzone for years. Us meeting up was similar to if I was in Memphis and you and I decided to grab a bite to eat. Only differences were the people who posted together in the endzone actually liked each other, and, admittedly, I was only 18 at the time.

    I was in the end zone and met up with a few guys to drink and golf one day but I knew them from Facebook first. Met up at another tailgate as well. About 15 showed up. Sab was not around or invited to either one.

    Which says it isn't wrong, too. So what was the problem?

    Okay. Do you need me to walk you through how you could have been posting in the end zone at a different time period than when Sab and I were posting in the end zone?

    It sounds like you and your end zone group had similar ideas about getting together to meet in person as our end zone group had. Multiple other people expressed a desire to join Sab and me that day, but it wasn't possible because they didn't live in or around Nashville.

    Eh, not exactly, but again, we've established that neither of us cares about this. So why the discussion?

    no, I don’t, which is why i said sab wasn’t around or invited if he was.

    What was the point of expressing that Sab was not around or invited, then?

    The post read as if you were questioning my statement about how this meet up came about.

    there is a lot of irony in this exchange right along side our exchange here.
