How Do I Respond if I'm Asked to State my Pronouns?
Great discussion and suggestion around a topic du jour. Christian, you should not participate in their rituals. Be prepared to answer why you won’t.

Destroy
“Do we have time for a y-o-r-t-s?” my wife asks to avoid the kids understanding us.
“Yorts?” I respond.
“Backwards.”
“Stroy,” I respond.
“I suck at this.”
And this brings us to “stroy,” which is the opposite of “destroy,” right? So if destroy means to break, stroy has to mean to build. Etymology time!
Middle English, from Anglo-French destroy-, destrui-, stem of destrure, from Vulgar Latin *destrugere, alteration of Latin destruere, from de- + struere to build
So there you go. Go forth and stroy!

Easily one of my biggest pet peeves. But the title text is fantastic.
God was like, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
That had me rolling. My sense of humor is odd.
