Do people just hate their children? There's so many good names to choose, just the longest list of them. There's nicknames upon nicknames, but every goddamn child has to have a combination of letters that've never been used before. Look, I'm not saying that everyone should name their kids Edith and Edward, but we also don't need a bunch of Brekinleighlynnes and Jahckxsonz running around. I feel very passionately about this subject. Pick a name that's either been used before (that isn't ass), or at least a name that sounds like a fucking name. I feel very strongly about this subject.
This whole post triggered me.
I love my mum and dad very much.
But it gets somewhat tedious when you have to spell your name quite possibly over a hundred thousand times in your lifetime.
Yeah, it's annoying to spell my 5 letter last name once in a while. I can only imagine it gets quite a bit worse with increasing frequency and letters. If you don't mind my asking, what's your first name?
As someone with a long name, the bane of my existence is signing online forms without a touch screen. I just had to sign off on four different consent forms online for a new doctor’s office - using my mouse.
I usually take time with my signature, but for this I did the lazy thing of a stylized first letter, followed by a squiggle. I don’t like doing that and don’t want to do that… but I’m tired, y’all.
