The problem with saying "I"...

[C C]

"Illeism is the act of referring to oneself in the third person instead of using first-person pronouns (I, me, mine, myself)."

EXAMPLES

The Marvel Comics character of Mantis: She almost always refers to herself in the third person as "this one", "she", and occasionally "Mantis", which has to do with her upbringing at the Temple of the Priests of Pama (in Vietnam, a sect of the Kree). This speech mannerism is of importance for her, for when the Silver Surfer asked her to stop speaking in the third person, she refused to comply.

In the 109th episode of "Seinfeld"...

THE JIMMY

The episode's title refers to a guest character played by Anthony Starke, who always refers to himself in the third person ("Jimmy").

Saying we shouldn't use "I" but then admitting all of your experience is only that of "I."

I also said we are habituated by language itself to using "I" to relate to each other in social situations. Which is exactly what's happening now.

If every experience is only related to "I," how do you hope to relate to others without reference to "I"?
Isn't that trying to divorce yourself from the very connection you are trying to make with others?

[Magical Realist]

If every experience is only related to "I," how do you hope to relate to others without reference to "I"?

Every experience for me occurs in the locus or nexus that we label "I". I can talk about what I'm experiencing and intending without constantly attributing all that to some never experienced subject. Just as both I and CC have shown..

[Syne]

You can't talk about it in any sensible way, in everyday life, without using "I."
And you don't see the contradiction in experiencing everything as "I" but claiming you never experience "I"?
