I seriously must have slept thru that news. I'm sure your conveying it correctly. I just did not know it's gotten that Looney!
Seriously I refuse to adapt to this new exclusion of using male/female connector. And I worked years ordering network parts that required knowing the difference.

The 1984 book used newspeak to ratify language...we are heading that way.

Call it the big house,because even folks serving time can say they have a common resident name

Also need to get rid of Benjamin Franklin on the $100 bill and put George Floyd on it.

Well, 1 out of every 30 or so I may actually learn something. The rest is just back and forth nonsense. It makes for some entertaining reading though.
