HIM: You can’t use “them” as a pronoun for an individual—“them” modifies multiple people.

ME: It doesn’t have to.

THEM: Yes it does!

ME: …

ME: Are you sure?

Borges’ capsule review of KING KONG in which he mostly complains that Kong should be bigger
Film review by Jorge Luis Borges of KING KONG (1933): King Kong: A monkey fourteen meters high (some of his fans say fifteen) is obviously charming, but perhaps that is not enough. This monkey is not full of juice; he is a dried out and dusty contraption with angular, clumsy movements. His only virtue-his height-seems not to have greatly impressed the photographer, who persists in not shooting him from below but from above, a plainly mistaken angle that invalidates and annuls his tallness. It should be added that he is hunchbacked and bowlegged, features that also shorten him. To ensure that there is nothing extraordinary about him, they make him fight monsters far stranger than he and find him lodgings in fake caverns the size of a cathedral, where his hard-won stature is lost. A carnal or romantic love for Miss Fay Wray brings to perfection the ruin of this gorilla and of the film as well.

JERRY LEWIS: Hello! (clears throat) Hello. I'd like an eighth of the Super Silver HAZE and a nice OG for the VAPING.

Jerry walks over to the ATM and tries to withdraw money for twenty minutes while an impatient line forms (cont’d)

I strongly believe the next president should be someone that has played Elden Ring. They don’t have to beat it, but it would be nice if they at least reached the Fire Giant
