Whether it’s foot in mouth, a sudden heavy subject, or some utter nonsense that you don’t know how to process, what’s something that’s come up in an otherwise alright conversation that’s stopped it dead in its track for both of you?

Ever go complete dad-joke on them and respond with, “Couldn’t tell ya, I didn’t have a thermometer on me!”?
Really though, this is why I try to practice obfuscating gender when talking about others, as it makes stuff like that come up less often. A hidden perk of using they/them more.
Holy crap, dad-joking a response is brilliant. I am going to try that!
I also leave out gender, but because of my innate laziness. I just don’t have to change my speech pattern based on the subjects gender. Everyone is they/them it’s just easier
