Being new to this, I feel I am making a social faux pas when referring to a collective group of people on Steemit. What is the social norm?
Or is it a gaggle like geese? A business like ferrets? A herd of asses? A pandemonium of parrots? A parliament of owls? A flamboyance of flamingos? I just don't know what to say.
I have fantasized about calling y'all (all of you) Steemers, Steemies, Steems, My Steemy friends, Hot n' Steemy peeps, The Steem Train, Steem-cookers, Steem-punks, Steemy and passionate nerds.
Google defines steamy as:
"steam·y - adjective
producing, filled with, or clouded with steam.
"a small steamy kitchen"
(of a place or its atmosphere) hot and humid.
"the hot, steamy jungle"
synonyms: humid, muggy, sticky, dripping, moist, damp, clammy, sultry, sweaty, steaming
"the steamy jungle"
informal
depicting or involving erotic sexual activity.
"steamy sex scenes"
synonyms: passionate, torrid, amorous, ardent, lustful; "
I'd have to agree. As a collective, you are , we are gaining steam, we are sweaty, sultry, passionate and amorous. Steemers are passionately driven to change things and create an independent platform for all to gain steam towards their passion.
But I still don't know what to call y'all.
Suggestions?
Let's start a political debate about it.
