We still use master/slave regularly on chillers/boilers, I'm surprised that that hasn't changed yet.

Yep, same at the power plant, we use male/female all the time for fittings, "they/them" just doesn't convey the same meaning.

Lochinvar has now labeled them as "Leader/follower". FFS

Probably not too political.

Don't know if this fits here, but I'll try. May not be that funny.
Yesterday, my wife and I are on the overpass on Jackrabbit Lane in Belgrade, waiting for the light to turn green and get onto I- 90 west towards Butte. My wife (driving) says "looks like we could be the recipients of some rifles if that Sequoia two cars ahead doesn't put up their back window" Looks like it was fully open so their bird dog could get fresh air? It was also stacked to the ceiling with long gun cases.
Light turns green, Toyota takes off, two rifle cases hit the ground and small car in front of us runs them both over. One soft case, one plastic case. I hoped out and picked them up- they were heavy as they clearly had firearms in them. All rush hour traffic has stopped now as the driver is stopped in middle of on ramp to come collect their guns in the middle of the intersection.
The man and woman put their guns back in, roll up their back window, and merge onto I-90 westbound.
Ouch.
