Tommy is thinking:

why do posters 

refer to themselves in the third person.

I have tried to,

so has himself.

When speaking in the third person,

he himself, finds, he himself,

asking himself why?

Can two people converse in the third person?

Tommy finds it difficult

to quote directly from

a third person's point of view,

while speaking to the third-person

themselves. 

We wonder if one's first-person

obligates the second-person's

directly attributed pro-noun.

I myself think that we should

-Tommy is speaking directly here-

avoid all confusion in such matters

by using the first-person

when writing or speaking to the reader,

as one will find that he or she wonders

if they themselves are also confused.

Yours (or is it ones)

Graham Sherwood thinks that Tommy Carroll should pull himself together and be himself.

There you go Tommy, that's better.

Clever work by the way but I prefer yours!
