  This is why I prefer the nonspecific "meat sack," though I'll admit mine is often more cumbersome in general usage. (Seriously: "folks" is what I tend to use to avoid this situation. Any time you find yourself saying "guys," folks will work.)

    With the caveat that you end up sounding like a politician

      If you s/guys/folks/ in that comment and think it sounds like a politician, I'm quite intrigued by who your politicians are. Kill this thread and don't reply to me, though, we are super off topic.

  I use 'guys' in the gender-neutral sense of 'you guys' :)
