Irukandji Syndrome posted:Is your wife a person of color? I've noticed that people seem to gently caress up names for people who are either not white or don't have a very "white" sounding name out of pure racism, whether they realize it or not, even when the names are EXCRUCIATINGLY simple. One of my coworkers had a first and last name that were both one syllable each and pronounced exactly as they're read, but the name was also visibly East Asian (think Cho Chang) so people still, somehow, found new and exciting ways to gently caress it up. Eh, it’s plainly obvious you are projecting there chief. I have a very simple name that gets mispronounced regularly by people of other cultures ( think Jones mispronounced as joe-nez is the most common way) and I never thought they were doing it to be Racist. Names, like all words: rely upon familiarity to pronounce correctly to native speakers and names are a class of words that people regularly have to pronounce outside of their familiar structure.

It doesn’t bug me when my name is mispronounced, but when I explain the pronunciation and they continue to mispronounce the same way is when I get a bit ticked off. Like you can tell when it’s someone kind of getting the mouthfeel of it, and ok you’re trying so points to ya, but I’ve had a lot of people just hear me pronounce it and ignore it which is insanely rude. I’d rather have the 20 Questions about the drat name.

Khizan posted:They're not an rear end in a top hat, but they should rethink the name if they're not living in Ireland or thereabouts because that kid is gonna spend the rest of their life spelling it for people and telling them how to pronounce it and nobody is ever going to get it right, and there's a good chance they'll hate being the weird name kid. Also, assuming they're American I'd also bet they get called on less often in class, and they may well get fewer callbacks for jobs because assholes won't want to bother learning how to pronounce it. Is your name Gaylord?

AITA For throwing away date's gift?quote:So I recently went on a date with a guy and we had a pretty great time. He took me home afterwards and that was that. Then a few days later he came over out of the blue and bought me a box of chocolates. It was a nice gesture and I sadly wasn't grateful enough because I was rushing around trying to get ready for an important work function. So I just put them to one side. He was kind of annoyed by my disappointing reaction and wanted to stay and enjoy them with me, but he took it okay when I told him I would if I didn't have to go out.

I mean there's a high probability that they were most likely roofied/poisoned, but what, exactly, was the guy going to do? Was he going to stalk her house and wait to see if she got sick? Was he going to just show up randomly hoping she was passed out? I'm not understanding what the endgame was there either way, she probably dodged a hella bullet

The broken seal is suspicious as gently caress, but even aside from that, it's also really hinky that the guy dropped by with no notice and expected OP to be available and happy to hang out with him. Especially after one date.

If it was Cadbury roofie and a half you’d think he’d be relieved she didn’t eat them after he left. For reals it’s obvious she suspects something but probably didn’t know where to take the not so kinder surprises for checking.

It isn't one thing alone, it's the pyramid. Showing up uninvited at her house after one date, bringing chocolates and demanding that she drop everything to eat with him right then and there, getting angry when she says she didn't eat them, and oh yes, the chocolates weren't factory-sealed. Any one of those would be creepy, but the combination is RUN AWAY SCREAMING.

It's a compounding factor when you're also a pushy creep.

But do keep in mind that women are taught never to drink/eat things that have been given to them unsealed by a dude for very good reasons. Probably most comfortable for the lady if you just give them the surprise thing in a card.
