Can we at least all agree that “monguys” is not gender-neutral?
Not gander-neutral either.
I am completely willing to surrender mongopodes for mongooze.
Polygooze?
Beat me to it by mere Mongoseconds.
Ya gotta be fast on BB.
mongopodes
Surely it goes:
mongoose > mongooses > mongeese > mongoze > mongoosen
Each one more plural than the last.
I try to slip “octopodes” into casual conversation whenever I possibly can.
mongoslings
Sure, for the baby ones!
mongoose > mongooses > all mongooses > all y’all mongooses
Each one more plural than the last.
Getting all mongooey in here.
That’s a name that might stick!
Like the Monongahela in a monsoon.

has been given a timeout for spreading Covid-19 FUD.
I’ve said this before, but the BBS is not the place to sow doubt about COVID-19 mitigation measures when so many aren’t taking basic steps to begin with because they believe it a hoax. If that clear, bright line isn’t acceptable to you. Post elsewhere, please.
How you manage to deliver this calmly is beyond my understanding.
I probably would promise bodily harm IRL by now.
Chapeau.

has been given a brief timeout for using racist stereotypical names for COVID-19 because they “like it”.
The pandemic isn’t a game, it isn’t funny, and enough people aren’t taking it seriously already. Casual racism is still racism, even if you find it funny, too.
