Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
- nathankunicki 8y agoYes, and some opinions happen to be plain wrong, and others are similarly entitled to say so. The entitlement to state an opinion does not guarantee its correctness.
- pravda 8y agoOk, I guess that joke was a little bit too subtle. Let me rephrase that reply: Everyone is entitled to his own opinion. Everyone takes the singular, but in that reply, I paired it with the plural their.
- geofft 8y agoYes, and everyone missed the joke because that sentence reads naturally, thus proving that "their" is an appropriate pronoun to use.
