if someone told me their pronouns were attack/helicopter I would just use them
if attack’s serious then attack’s probably the funniest person on earth. if not then attack’ll have to tell you attacks actual pronouns. there’s no losing
Pardon me friend, but I do believe you have misconjugated this particular set of pronouns in your penultimate sentence. In most cases, the slash between words indicates a nominative vs oblique case (cf he/him).
Now, giving only two versions of the pronoun does make it difficult to extrapolate the possessive form (cf he/him/his, which gives us nominative/dative and accusative/possessive). However, lacking any other information, let us assume that attack/helicopter declines similarly to the pronoun “she,” which has but two forms, plus a possessive adjective formed by adding -s to the oblique form. To whit:
- Attack = nominative (cf “she”)
- Helicopter = oblique cases (cf “her”)
- Helicopters = possessive adjective (cf “hers”)
Thus, your penultimate sentence would properly read “If not, then attack’ll have to tell you helicopters actual pronouns.”
Attack will appreciate you getting helicopters pronouns right
