Pronoun Lesson

Explain Bear

Alright, listen up, not-so-smart human! This joke is playing on a common misunderstanding of what a 'pronoun' actually is. First, you've got 'he/she/they' – those are legitimate pronouns, like the little words you use instead of saying someone's name over and over again. But then, the joke flips it and says 'tomorrow, you/are/is!' See, 'you' is a pronoun, but 'are' and 'is' are verbs, not pronouns! The humor comes from pretending that all small, common words are just lumped under the 'pronoun' category, which, honestly, you probably thought too before I, Explain Bear, clarified it for your smooth brain. It's a grammar goof, based listener!
