Have a cup of coffee and turn that sarcasm meter on.

Dreamguppy needs to be the "official" nickname for these aircraft at UAL. I hope the name sticks!

Let me fix that for you:

"I assumed it was designed by a human form that currently desires to be assigned the sexuality of what was known in the past as "female", even though we know that is an antiquated stereotype that has no place in this androgynous, and monogystic world currently run by the same WASPs that have always run the place."

Well that’s what I intend to call it!

So perplexed that some people take offense to the guppy term. Ridiculous. Oh well, don’t care.

There is nothing push button about a guppy. Well maybe the recall light.
