The Summoning

Honestly, I'm bi in a hetero relationship currently, and this would summon me like nothing else.

Except maybe masculine crying to Johnny Cash singing "Hurt."

  Yea that's got a totally different energy to it.
  
  You can have it all
  
  My empire of cardboard
  
  life threatening, if the male suicide statistics are right
- Non-binary crying to Janelle Monae singing Dirty Computer
"my gf and I's" makes me want to hurl things and scream
- prescriptivism detected
  
  Unified grammar and spelling increases the speed, accuracy and universality of communication
- yeah I'm also jealous of being able to say that
- Apart from hating the abbreviation, what's wrong with this? It sounds somewhat grammatically correct.
  
  when you say something belongs to you, you don't call it "I's thing" - you call it "my thing".
  
  if it belongs to your friends Jim and Bob, it's "Jim and Bob's thing" or "Jim's and Bob's thing". likewise, when it belongs to your gf and yourself, it makes more sense to say "my gf and my" or "my gf's and my", rather than inventing a brand new word that sounds so very stupid.
