      So I think I have a good one, actually.

      That’s what they said.

      That’s it, really, an inclusive update on an old stupid joke.

      I suspect I’m still the only one to find it funny.

        I actually found myself tempted to say exactly that earlier today. Someone said something about sucking, and my initial instinct was, “That’s what she said!”, but then I thought about the audience and felt like the gender neutral “they” might be more appropriate, but I wasn’t really sure, so instead I said nothing.

          That’s why it’s fun, at least to me.

          You snap out of the conversation and go over the permutations. It’s funnier that way.
