Workers of the world are we cooked?
Idk why people act like “chat” is some linguistic novelty. Addressing the audience is not a new thing. It’s just like saying “ladies and gentlemen” or even just “guys”. Like “guys, is this real?”. It’s not a pronoun it’s just the addressee of your sentence.
I think it’s novel because people say it when there’s no audience
The NSA spy in my phone
Yeah, I think that’s what really makes it stick; the idea that you’re talking to some fictional group that obviously isn’t there.
Fleabag reboot but she addresses the audience as chat
It’s just a noun. Non-pro. Amateurnoun.
it’s a neo-noun
I sometimes turn around and wink into the camera when im alone at home.
It’s nice that it’s both concise and completely degendered. I do have a soft spot for “conference” though, it feels upmarket and fancy.
“Workers of the world unite” is too long, I think we need to use chat more. “Chat, unite!”
Comrades was right there!!
