I pretty much answer to all permutations of my name: Jill, Jilli, Jillian. Of course, it's also been proven that I will answer to "goth girl" or "cupcake".
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Ok...Becky...gah, can't do it. Sorry, Rebecca. Though when I see you in person, it will probably be a mix of Rebecca and Ms Belle.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I have had the worst lifelong experience pronouncing/reading/explaining my name. For folks on the board who haven't heard my name spoken, it's "ess-ay," precisely how it's spelled. No dots! But nearly everyone I have ever met stumbles, often hard, on my name. It's understandable, but the worst is when people refuse to acknowledge that SA is, you know, my name. I have walked away from people who give me a hard time about it.
Thanks for the interview ~ma! I had a great interview, for an hour and a half, and I'm very happy with my performance. We'll see if it sticks!

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
Desperately want to go home.

I have a friend who goes by Becky. My aunt has always been called Becka.
I'll answer to Jess or Jessica, never Jessie.
I have a co-worker who goes by his middle name (so his corporate email displays as Billy Bob Smith, but he always goes by Bob), and there is another person we work with who simply *cannot* figure out that "Billy" is actually "Bob" and that they are not two separate people.

Question: Do I want to go to a Superb Owl party if I don't care anything about football, but I want to force myself to be more social and let people from the neighborhood know that I still exist?

Will there be good food there and other people who don't care much about the game? Those would be my criteria for going to a Superb Owl party.

I kinda want people to come here, more for mocking than actual - ooooh, football - but I don't want to go elsewhere.

I will be watching the Owl from the airport, hoping the Seahawks somehow win again just to prove a point about Northwest teams.
