For the record, Retro has not posted, though he specifically, repeatedly, asked me to do this.
One of the hallmarks of being an adult is to not ask other adults to do things to satisfy a fleeting whimsy. I think that's a reason why so many people have an issue with non-standard pronouns. "You want me to keep a mental register of the pronouns of every single person I interact with? Really? And you won't abandon this inarguable, undebatable, not-up-for-negotiation demand when you graduate from college and start a job search and archive your tumblr?" So that's how awful Retro is being here to me. To all of us. To all of you guys, really, as you all hate the new software and it was his idea.
