I'm glad I actually didn't do a slit/splits. I can picture myself lying in agony on a hospital bed, while doctors and nurses argue over whether I did a split or the splits.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've never heard "a split" before this conversation.

Another split singular person over here.
That just sounds painful.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I've never heard "a split" before this conversation.
I've never heard "the splits" before this conversation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can't believe I have actually stumbled across a "how do YOU say it?" conversation we haven't had a hundred times.

I've only heard "the splits".

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Explain why "the splits" would be plural. Is it because you have two legs?

The same reason "pants" and "scissors" are plural?
