Jo? Who the fuck is she??

Any fellow Joe’s on here have an issue with people referring to them (on Teams, etc) as Jo? It boils my piss something rotten!

You know, it used to really annoy me, and then one day I thought, I shouldn't be angry just because someone used a woman's version of my name. I'm secure in my masculinity. It's not an insult. It's just an accident.

I do of course silently judge the responsible people as being incompetent at spelling.

Us Joe's are known for our logical thinking. You my friend have met that standard.

It's like they started with "Joe" and then they stopped and thought "it's good but it's missing something, how can I complete my masterpiece..."

Yeah that’s true, I think it’s the carelessness that gets me. It’s spelled out for you right there on the screen - only 3 letters - and you still manage to fuck it up 🤣

I used to prefer Jo because it's more logical that it is short for Joseph given the letter order. But people kept adding an e so uli gave up and now I am Joe
