Awesome! Nothing's classier than a snub.
ummmm, right.
I hate having to correct you in public, but there is something classier than my snub: nonconstructive and uninteresting anonymous criticism!
Come back soon and thanks for playing!
Why do you refer to yourself in the third person? That's very annoying.
Great question considering your mental incapacities!
Social information processing has been found to vary as a function of whether perceivers categorize individuals in terms of self and other (SO-categorization) or using categories associated with the third pronominal person (3P-categorization). Normal children aged 3–8, autistic children aged 5–9 and adult students were presented with decision tasks that enabled us to assess the use of SO- and 3P-categorizations. A breakthrough of the SO-categorization was observed at age 5. The hypothesis that 3P-categorization precedes SO-categorization was strongly disconfirmed, only adults showing consistent 3P-categorization. Although previous research suggested a strong association between SO-categorization and 'I–Thou' related social understanding, performances of autistic children suggested that impaired understanding of mental life does not detract from the ability to use SO-categorization.
The short answer is that Mr. 60 didn't invent 3rd person self-referencing, but he certainly elevated it to an art form. See you again manana!
