Still that tendency yielded this wonderful bit of punk revival Those boys have just released the tremendous 'The Clap' with their debut album out soon. Pretty sure they're playing in Glasgow soon. Edit: A quick check says that by "playing Glasgow soon", I obviously mean October. Edited January 22, 2020 by Dee Man 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 People e-mailing who have added their pronouns to their e-mail signatures. Why? Why do I need this information? I have your name from the e-mail so if/when I reply, that’s what I am going to use. I am not going to start talking about you to anyone else and if I did, I’d use your name. The name you just gave me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I however prefer to think it came about so you could use their correct pronouns when talking behind their backs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just not sure why it’s relevant in an e-mail which is from people I will never meet or talk about in that context. I should have added that the e-mails were from a national group that send out info about work related stuff. Not anyone I am ever likely to meet! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
