All non-proper objects will henceforth be known as MEEP, embrace the MEEP, extinguish the he/she/him/her/it/they/them/my/mine/their/theirs/our/ours/your/yours/we/yall/yalls.

Watch how well it works.

"""Meep went to the park and meep enjoyed some toast. Afterwards, Alex took meep bread to feed the ducks. Meep enjoyed feeding the ducks. Meep were thinking of getting some ducks of meep meep, but that's a story meep will tell later."""

Clearly superior, solved. Next.

When a khajiit calls themself 'this one' is 'this one' technically a pronoun? I'm honestly unsure about the grammar for that.

Probably? It's not like English makes much sense to begin with.

Somewhat related, jnana yoga (path of knowledge) adepts are encouraged to refer to themselves in the 3rd person (illeism)
