In your “Mormon’s say”, the word “say” is not a noun

Then please explain the term "had my say".

Never go up against a Bagster when the misuse of words for humor's sake is on the line.

^^^^^^^^^SLIDE ALERT^^^^^^^^^

Ah, a syntax issue:
In the idiomatic expression “had my say”, the word “say” is not functioning as a verb; it is serving as a noun and in the objective case.

Compare:
All of the women say that bagster is hot.

In this sentence, “say” serves as a verb.

Don’t make me force you to diagram sentences, bags!

If I get sent to Slide Jail for this post, bagster, I am blaming you.
