With that in mind, one conservative student, Grant Strobl, who is also chairman of the Young Americans for Freedom board of governors, decided to troll the university administration by officially requesting his pronoun to be changed to His Majesty.
And it worked!

Has anybody heard the word “ze” used in real life? Sounds to me like someone is attempting a fake German accent like in old WW2 movies.

When I was a young boy, my grandmother would formally address me as Master, which is classically correct, but I think it would be cool if all these SJW’s would have to address me as Master. That's the pronoun I would pick.

Wait until somebody tries “Grand Kleagle” or “Exalted Cyclops” (which, by the way, was Demoncrat Senator Bob Byrd’s title).

When I was a young boy, my grandmother would formally address me as Master Same here..
I am guessing this experiment will fail and they will just refer to everyone as comrade
