I suppose all we retired people should just take the red pill so we don't inconvenience our betters.

You need to explain that "our betters" bit. Who are they?
Why worry about their inconvenience? They have inconvenienced us many times in our lives.

No, not all. Most seem to be just trying to survive.

but if you are giving up, don't be wasteful. Head over to the clinic and get recycled to be Soylent Green.

I ain't giving up. MAGA!

[Rufus T. Firefly]

I ain't giving up. MAGA!

It always has been - that's the flaw - always has been.

You'll make a great bowl of Soylent Green

I'll be happy to share that "Happy Happy Joy" thing with the next kid I see.

Yeah, sure, whenever I wanna get arrested for child-abuse, huh.
And yet, you appear to have these things at your fingertips.
Hhhhhhhhmmmmmm.

P.S. Did you go on to the "Wiener Inspector" piece? Goodlawd. (P.S. I can think of a few other venues where that wiener piece might be very popular.)

Ren & Stimpy used to be a show on Nickelodeon so children are probably a lot more knowledgeable than you credit them.

I am however becoming a big fan of Rick & Morty,

I left that for you to revel in that all by yourself,

I learned a whole new ( new for me) term, today, watching a court TV show. A 20-something-ish person insisted on being referred to as:
Gender non-binary.

Translation. That train will traverse any tunnel. It will be a steam, diesel or electric locomotive.what ever the railroad requires at that moment. That locomotive will not light up their classification lights for you to identify it. Grab a ticket and enjoy the ride

Seems a marvelous and good-natured interpretive analogy, Robert.

I'm still not certain what to say, personally , upon meeting a person presenting that self-image . For example, in a classroom, I wonder if I would use "he"or "her" when referencing that person. I'm not even certain how I would respectfully and with kindness ask such a person which pronouns he or she or (?) might prefer being utilized when making Third Person (which mark Gender) reference.

Just address the person by their name and keep on moving forward.

Birth name or new chosen name..... Caitlyn Marie Jenner (born William Bruce Jenner; Or maybe you can just point your finger and say Hey You,

Nonsense, or at least, a flippant reply, sir, typically condescending, but unhelpful. It's definitely not that simple. Absolutely not. Giving it such short-shrift is clumsy, at best. It certainly would not be seldom that a person would be referred to in such a setting necessitating the use of a Third Person pronoun. For example, teacher stands in front of the class, and during the lesson refers to a clever answer given by that person , previously, saying something like, "Yesterday, she said..." or "Yesterday, he said...". Get it?

Don't be silly, please, and reckless with your answers, kindly. I realize you have, at times, a strong motivation to be smartazzzed, but here I am talking - trying to talk - about something that concerns being considerate of another person in our modern society, a place of many, many changes.
