Neo pronouns
Neo pronouns are a neologism pronoun that differ from traditional English pronouns: he, she, they, I, you, and one. Neo pronouns can be traced back into mid-17th century, having been documented in George Fox’s 1660 book stating,
“for using those words to some proud men, who would say, 'What! You ill-bred clown, do you Thou me?'"
Other neo-pronouns such as Thon caught on for a short while from late 1800’s to early 1900’s, recorded in “Funk and Wagnalls, Supplement to A Standard Dictionary of the English Language, 1903”
thon. Pronoun of the 3rd person, common gender, meaning “that one, he she, or it”: a neoterism proposed by Charles Crozat Converse, and apparently complying with the neoteristic canons, since it supplies an antecedent blank, obeys a simple and obvious analogy, and is euphonious.
Neo-pronouns have since died down in usage but have resurged in mid 2010’s by Non-Binary individuals (people who identify outside of the gender binary) who expressing comfort in being referred to types of neo-pronouns.

Get the olivia ponton mug.Pfizer employee who just got canned. In addition to losing all dignity, it is learned that scores of many other people knew about it months before the terminated person. These people avoid the person losing the job as if the terminated person had plague or leprosy; hence, the invocation of "leper."The employee losing their job also loses their office, support, email, benefits, etc. And to a large degree spirit and health.
Though originating at Pfizer, the largest pharmaceutical manufacturer in the world, the term "PFLEPER" (pronounced F-LEPER) may be used for any terminated employee anywhere.
Pfizer puts a "P" before many words beginning with "F:" eg., Pfun, Pfinance, Pfamily, etc. And prefixes a "PF" on just about any other word it uses. Cute that way.
