As scary/craxy things go, I don't see that comment as much of either.
I didn't think it was particularly scary/craxy so much as unbearably pretentious hyperbole.
Your Pretentiousness May Vary.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
"Nilly" is my fault. I have a thing against online nicknames - I HATE THEM. With a fucking passion. Whenever anybody calls me gossi in real life I cringe inside, and want to smash my brain out with a cricket bat (there's a Shaun of the Dead deleted subplot). (Look, Jars, you and Nibbler caused me brain damage).
ETA: "Jars" and "Nibbler" even.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Um, but Nilly is her name. (right?)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh.

Yes, my day is going great.
Sorry, Nilly, I had no idea.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
For the record, not that I can imagine myself whedonesqued, but "ita" is grounds for brains smashing -- not mine own, and not with a bat.

I un "Nilly"'ed Nilly, because I'm great, and can't write grammatically correct sentences.

Kevin, just putting it out there...
The name someone chooses for themself online is for all intents and purposes, you know, THEIR NAME. So it's not about you and your issues at all. Yeah?

My grammar makes me laugh.
