Frankly, part of wonders what might generate an email from MS, considering how many times I've been 'disciplined' for my choice/use of language on the Xbox platform... /s
Some years ago I had a copy of MS Word 95. I was doing some writing and I typed the sentence, “The man came into the room.” The grammar checker popped up stating “Gender Specific” and wanted me to change it to “the person came into the room.
This was really annoying. Luckily, the then Microsoft VP in charge of Word was a friend of many years. I complained to him and some months later I received a complimentary copy of MS Word 95 with the gender-specific fixer removed.
I hope they didn’t put it back in.
MS Word 16.5 on Mac (Microsoft 365) doesn’t do that. It happily accepts “dumbass” and “dumbasses” and doesn’t scold me.
Not trying to be a “smartass”, but doesn’t using MS Word make a person a “dumbass”? 😀
I’m looking for the macro-aggression feature.
And speaking of “woke.” Last year my IPAD popped up with a new “feature” where I could “show my pride” by giving my ipad a homo rainbow flag theme. So sick of this woke crap.

Oh for the good old days !
