Apparently Sam Smith would love to be a "fisherm...fisherthem", as stated on The One Show.

This policing of language is becoming utterly insane. Yet even live on TV no one seems to bat an eyelid. They seem more confused by the concept of Sam fishing than the term "fisherthem". Gender is the only are where narcissism isn't just accepted, it's actively celebrated.

What's next? A them-hole cover? Themager? Themdatory?

I have absolutely no time for anyone who wants to be referred to as plural.

I'll go and look at the dick-tionary and may be back!

Shut your them-dible before you are accused of bigotry?

Dear me, it really is pathetic attention seeking behaviour, isn't it?

😂

’fisherthem’ is my word of the day now.

Spectacularly tiresome. Doing a great job of showing how absurd this nonsense is though.
