"Holly came from Miami, FLA
Hitch-hiked her way across USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She said hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side."
Lou Reed.

Considering the handbags, Eric, I'd guess this is a woman. But nowadays who knows?

and her “over the hill” radar was in high gear :D

And besides, we don't know the said human beings' preferred pronoun.

No! Now it's "They." In the singular form. That's all the current politically-blah-blah-blah rage.
But I'm still not quite clear on how you use "they" in the singular. Is it
"I saw this person lying on the ground and they was carrying some bags," or is it
"I saw this person lying on the ground and they were carrying some bags."

Eric, how about "I saw this person laying on the ground and them was carrying some bags." That puts the situation into perspective and clarifies it.

Ah, much more betterer.

I just realized my mistake. You cannot assume anymore that the being wants to be identified as human.

I just wish I could post a photo that would draw this much interesting commentary.

Maybe it is a Moslima?
You never know with woman dressing up irrational.

I'd also like to know how you can be doing your variable thing on the ground, and still be carrying a bag.
Life is full of mystery and signs.

For those who didn't know: this is Palermo-speak used to confuse Catania-speakers during crucial, contractual moments. The skill is currently being hired and enjoyed by politicians in Washington and London (as well as one or two LuLanders), proving to be a more lucrative export yet than olive oil, accoustic guitars and volcanic wines, collectively, in a proportion of 33% to 67%.

It's apparently also been used on English speakers to confuse them about the difference between the verbs "to lie" and "to lay." It's damned hard to find a contemporary writer, novelist or essayist, who comprehends this: "The chicken was lying in the straw, laying eggs."

Shouldn't that be:
"The (insert adjectival form of the name of political party you most abhor) chicken was lying about laying eggs?"

Insanity in the air.
