Awesome story to tell the Grandkids but I'm intrigued as to why it annoys or you don't understand it?  Smiley

The missus son does it all the time. Does my head in.

Sometimes he doesn’t even talk, he puts the phone on the side and gets on with something else rather than phone back.

The other day he was on FaceTime and his phone was in another room.

I was working at the kitchen table. He makes toast, sits down and is eating his toast. I keep hearing strange sounds from the hall. He sees me stopping and listening and says, “I’m on FaceTime with Onion Pits. Left the phone in the hall as I’m having toast.”

I ask why not just call him back and he says, “why not just leave him on the phone. Saves calling him back.”

It's annoyed me too, rightly or wrongly.

I'm as liberal as anyone, but this I can't just get my head around. You're either male, female or transgender. That maybe a simplistic view of it, but it's just going to get out of hand.

Shit like this doesn't help

Why not drop his phone in the toilet. Saves taking in there when he’s having a shit.

Or drivers who suddenly stop/slow down and let another driver out into the flow of traffic or turn across the flow of traffic when there are other drivers still travelling behind them at speed. Ok you could argue that the other drivers should allow a decent gap, i’ll give you that  but it interrupts the flow of traffic and causes snarl ups further behind. I am all for road etiquette and good manners but Jesus h Christ it is annoying and potentially dangerous. Besides they’d fail a driving test doing it.

It doesn't bother me. I don't think it's necessarily as black and white as you suggest, and it's no skin off my back to call somebody by their preferred pronoun.

I don't like to see it in young kids, though... parents telling people that their 10 year old is 'non-binary', or whatever. If it genuinely is the case then so be it, but I can't help but think that a lot of the time it's the parents making an opportunity to virute-signal or just plain attention-seeking on the parent's part.
