When did “other” become a verb? I remember when we got harfed by Marie Harf, and Psakied by Jen Psakie. Now, we are guilty of “othering.” It’s best to stay out of this worthless school.

By the way, how do they know “African American,” offends them? Did they ask all of them?

"When did “other” become a verb?"

A while back, I noticed a fad in advertising in which ad writers started to use nouns as verbs, apparently thinking they were being clever. So I heard stuff like "A new way to pizza" and "The next time you 5G . . ."
