...and no, that is not a grammatical error. (AP > CNN > AIM)

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Best. Name. Ever.

Too bad it doesn't work. Whenever people are talking about a general ' they' it's followed by a verb in plural. Since this 'They' is a name it should be followed by a singular verb.

They're to blame for this, but They is to blame for that.

^^Exactly. (In the topic title, I was referring to They, not them.)

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Part of the genius of this name is the gramatical nightmare it creates.
