Hey animals

Hi party animal

Ah, so you're not talking to me then.

[chridd]

(oh wait that wasn't plural, I guess you really weren't talking to me)

[LingEarth]

Good morning.

[heuristically_alone]

Be partying all night

[LingEarth]

Is that an order?

[ratammer]

(oh wait that wasn't plural, I guess you really weren't talking to me)

Are you plural?

[LingEarth]

Well 'you' does behave as a plural pronoun, so...

[ratammer]

That's true! It used to be exclusively plural.

[chridd]

No, I'm not plural, but I initially thought you were addressing all of us. (Or maybe you were?)

[heuristically_alone]

Is that an order?

Yes

[chridd]

Zero is treated as plural in English (e.g. "no items"); could a plural system have zero members?

[ratammer]

Interesting idea.

Technically afternoon (by like a minute).

[ratammer]

Evening.

Night!

[chridd]

It's still light out!

[heuristically_alone]

Not anymore.

[chridd]

It's light somewhere!
