It's true that people hear what they want to hear; what rings true and familiar to their breadth of experience.
I am so sick and tired of being called either 'Steven' or 'Kevin'. It is most often through written correspondence, (important things that I have to then go back and correct) but also by phone as I don't have a sqeaky voice.
I mean really people, do you think I am misspelling and mispronouncing my own fucking name and that you should correct me? Damn.
**on a positive note, I am glad my last name is not 'Fuchs' (pronounced f-yukes like my friend Dave) or 'Crapo' (pronounced cray-po, like our state Senator.) It could be worse I guess.
I'm unlike some who say they hate reading profiles. I love them: they make me laugh (really hard sometimes). Today I came across a dandy. Here were a couple of highlights:
"Yeah, Im bisexual, isn't everyone these days" ahahahaha *ahem* ummm NO.
And this was the best: "I totally hate those people who label themselves EMO, because it comes from 'emotionless' and everybody has emotions" (punctuation added by me, of course)
How about Emo is meant to describe music, as in "emotive alternative rock" and the annoying groupies (most often whiney teenagers) who think the world is trying to do them in. The persecution is often characterized by forcing them to live in mom and dad's home, pay no bills, and get trashed every weekend to take away the awful pain of being a fucktard while laboring under the impression that their take on issues is deeper than anyone has dared glimpse before. Have any amongst you ever met someone who claims to be Emo who has made even the slightest attempt at being emotionless (or even rational) for that matter?
Ahhh, comedy gold.
