Tommy is thinking:

why do posters refer to themselves

in the third person?

I have tried to,

so has himself.

When speaking in the third person

he finds one asking him:

why?

can two people converse

in the third person?

Tommy finds it difficult to

quote directly from a third person's

point of view

while speaking to the third-person

themselves-

(or is it your imagination that we find ones mind co-joining).

We wonder if one's first-person

obligates the second-persons

directly attributed pro-noun.

I myself think that we should

(Tommy is speaking directly here)

avoid all confusion in such matters

by using the first-person

when writing or speaking to the reader

as one will find that he or she wonders

if themselves are also confused.

Yours,

(or is it ones)
