My wife supplied the eggs, I supplied the sperm. As soon as the two of them began fertilization a pregnancy occurred. Equal parts me and her, no?

I have zero to do with her period for cripes sake. Stupid analogy.

Not sure why this is working me up.

Serenity now. Serenity now.

Because you're super easy to troll? I think OccultHawk was the only one being serious.

The next MB awards should have the category 'easiest to troll' though.

I only first heard it said like that a few months ago. A male co-worker sent out a card saying, "We're pregnant!" and I just thought WTF??? for the reasons that I've already explained. I don't want to troll, piss anyone off, or go into round two. I guess it was rude to bring it up but it seems very strange to me to use a plural pronoun in this case. It just bothers me. But language changes. Maybe this is actually a good shift since it promotes male involvement.

I'm thinking of cases when people say we when it's not really a we.

We bought a car (unless they both signed). We got a dog. We drove to Austin.

None of those piss me off. Maybe I can learn something by rethinking this.
