Because sadly we live in a society, and normal names are required for the functioning of society.
No they're not. They're required for us to be catalogued and managed by a state, to our detriment and the enrichment of the ruling class.
"Normality" is a fucking scam that keeps your imagination in check, so you never look outside your assigned box and realise you don't have to belong to anyone.
You have no idea how much genocidal violence has been done to condition our society to accept a dystopic phrase like "normal names are required for the functioning of society".
Your mind has been caged.
You're right.
I just want to say that my last name is three syllables and spelled exactly how it sounds. In fact it's two common english words stuck together. It was Americanized/Anglicized from Germany.
Three syllables will break brains on people here. I state it clearly. They're like haha what?
For the last 9 years I've just been handing over my work ID badge so they can type it.
I probably said it too dramatically, the kinds of people that need to hear it will just knee-jerk dismiss me, but seriously think about the phrase "normal names are required for the functioning of society". What a wild-ass thing to say. Required why? Is society really that fragile? Sounds like maybe it should be replaced by something that can handle the occasional mildly spicy letter. Mine isn't even that spicy, it's like whole-egg-mayo levels of spice.
It's hard to believe but it's just a couple people being shitty. Many probably agree sadly, but damn, get with it people !
I understand all the crashes database, Bobby Tables arguments. But shit, just update your system to accept Unicode and we'll live happily ever after. At least my child ๐๐ฆใพ(โโ _โ )ใโช will be finally recognized. ๐ค
That's a beautiful name.
