   I think they may be saying it that way on purpose, but I’ll let others join in the comment fun before I say why. It’s still weird though…

   Your caption reminds me of the move “Crazy People”, where they do lots of funny ads.

   Is it a take off of “With this ring, I thee wed…” But then wouldn’t it be, “With these rings, thee be fed.” Or is thy the plural for thee?

   Thou hasith a headache now.

     I was thinking the same thing, Peggy. And I think they say “Thy” because it rhymes with “I”

     “I thee wed” becomes “Thy be fed”

       Yes, I thought about the rhyme, too, but I can’t get past the annoyance of it sounding wrong. Grouchy Old Ladyhood, here I am. Where’s my sweater? It’s cold in here.

   That fits right in with “GitnSplit.”

   I think they left the “E” out of thy.
