gollark: They is a monoid in the category of endofunctors, in fact.
gollark: "Represent" is equivocatey. They "represent" people in that they stand in for the name in a sentence. They don't "represent" them like an image of them or something might.
gollark: This is actually a rather bad solution, though.
gollark: Since you have to get people to remap it as open before they accept your new thing.
gollark: It does, because it makes it not actually the same sort of thing.
