The Court of Master Sommeliers is getting rid of the word "master" in common practice. It's typical for master sommeliers to be referred to as "Master" followed by their last name, but the prestigious wine organization is changing that in an attempt to make the wine industry more inclusive.

>>> How many other 'masters' need to be eliminated to satisfy these purblind fanatics?

Sooooooo, Frankenstein movies will have to be redubbed for every instance of Igor saying, “Yes, Master.”

In that case, it depends on whether you’re playing the white pieces or the black pieces. If you’re playing the black pieces, you can say, “Master,” otherwise it’s considered “the M word”.

Master Gardener? A lot of people work for and are proud of that title, and do good work in their communities.

Does that include master/slave in computers?

That train left the station YEARS AGO. Los Angeles County banned this use in 2003 as offensive. Personally, I find their tolerance acceptance to be quite niggardly, but I won't say that out loud anywhere!

Well there’s my masters degree. Not bragging, in fact I always thought I was master of none and not even a jack of all trades. Well I don’t know jack,

Yes, it’s a mental disorder.
