    most names are made-up anyways, and i can’t remember made-up stuff. there has to be something profound about it or i forget it

    actually i have adopted a hobby of just giving people new names (yeah i know it could be seen as disrespectful but for me it’s just a normal way of doing things) and then calling them by that name. yes, it has led to confusion in the past. but it just feels like the proper thing to do. (yes you can call me weird and no i won’t take it as an insult.)

    also, there’s this weird phenomenon that when i make up a new name for somebody, somehow that’s much easier to remember. and if i do forget and make up a new name again, that new name will often be the same as the first time. so there seems to be something “recognizable” or “fundamental” about it.




  • so relatable, i call everyone “dude” or “man”.

    i think names are an exception and only reserved for rare occurrences. honestly, i wouldn’t mind if people didn’t have names in general. just call everyone “child” “man” or “hey you” depending on their appearance. names are a weird concept to me. it’s not natural that people have names, i guess.





  • I was in this very situation where a girl gave me hints but took a step back every time i approached her. I decided not to be too aggressive and ask her out, because i was raised (2012) in a time where it felt like even asking a girl out would be seen as sexual harassment.

    In retrospect i must say i feel terrible about it because i feel as if i should have just told her how i feel.
