Xem isn’t pronouns. Xem is silly rantings of delusionary people.

I don’t watch Jeopardy, and certainly will not now.

Jeopardy is on ABC which is Disney which is uber-woke, at least until they get rid of Iger.

The Oxford English Dictionary adds around 1,000 new words a year.

And I'll bet none of them are the so-called pronouns from that Jeopardy! clue.

I’m sure the majority of the audience still skews rather old, but Jeopardy is doing all these things to interact with the audience which involves cell phones and PCs that the older audience is probably not as comfortable using. So Ken and company are probably deceiving themselves into thinking the audience is hip to this post-modern crap.

pronouns were’s a problem when the rule that the masculine is the default was followed.

Not yet. Should the terms be used more frequently then they probably will.

I would have gone with “What are nonsense words used as pronouns by narcissists?”

The bottome right box has a place for the GFY reflective pronoun.

I have not watched a single episode of Jeopardy since Jennings replaced Trebeck.
