What the heck is with the “-er” suffix?


“I’m a witcher.”

“What does a witcher do?”

“I create watch catch breed f*** hunt witches.”

“I’m a birder.”

“What does a birder do?”

“I create catch hunt breed f*** watch birds.”

“Actually I think several of those could apply…”


I think the confusing-ass formula is this:

A [word1]er is a [word2]er of [word1]s.

    Wait so what’s the word for “I f*** witches”? Asking for a friend.

      “Witchbroomer”, I think.

      Although “Witchf***er” would make a great band name.

        I would go see that band. I expect heavy+aggressive drums and electric guitar.
