I would suggest that if you pair 'Grice' and 'ist' like that, and use it in
THAT sentence (the NYT QOTD), in such a context, then you have actually
said the opposite of what you mean. A la. Racist, ageist, sexist, rather
than adding the suffix to form a non-pejorative 'ist' word that connotes
(whose implicature is) adherence to the root a la communist, humorist,
balloonist, etc
Although, maybe it's a Schrodinger's cat existance constantly flipping
between ironically implying that you are both a Griceist (filthy animal)
and a GRICE-IST (one who speaks ad nauseam about the root for twenty
straight years).
Still, I'm sure I'll "Read all about it"

I use "griceian;" McEvoy prefers "griceist."
To adapt today's NYT quote of the day:
To claim a philosopher cannot do his job because he is not Grice is the
textbook definition of a griceist comment.
