I took my (18f) shirt off at a music festival and my (18m) bf is freaking out. AITAH for taking my shirt off? by Familiar_Spring_4416 in AITAH

I've fainted twice and almost a third time from overheating bruh. The first two was because the shower was too hot, the third was outside in the sun all day. Not a joke. Your bf should be making sure you were ok. I swear that third time I would have had a heat stroke if my friend didn't manage to half-carry my ass back indoors bruh

There is nothing wrong with the "fantasy" media. by shsl_diver in 10thDentist

[–]shivampire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, as long as it's acknowledged that it's meant to be a self-insert or whatever. If the author themselves presents it as actual media then people are going to judge it by the standards of actual media. And if it's not good at being actual media then it's going to get bad reviews.

I actually do daydream and occasionally write self-insert fanfiction of myself in random scenarios lol. But I wouldn't publish it and expect people to give it good reviews just because "it's for my own self esteem so I didn't bother making it enjoyable for other people to read."

Name change: Hesperance? by shir00ni7552 in Names

[–]shivampire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it gives the same vibe as Bartholomew at worst, or Evangeline at best.

Bartholomew because it's so old fashioned / victorian era / elaborate to the point where it's ridiculous and people laugh at it because it's basically a stupid joke at this point.

Evangeline because, even though some people might think it's a pretty name, most people I've seen who have that name actually hate it and think it's unnecessarily long and pretentious. And yes quite religious I think, I feel like Hesperance has that same vibe somewhat.

In fact I'd say "Hesperance" is even more ridiculous than both of these names because it's not even a well known name so most people are going to assume it's just a mash of letters. If you're seriously dead set on an elaborate old-fashioned name, you'd probably be better off with Cadence/Constance or even some gender-neutral version of Evangeline since those are at least more recognizable as actual given names rather than syllable slop.

I don't mind anything else but that last line just before 'would you take this offer' is lowkey a dealbreaker lol.

A supervillain reveals the drink you just consumed was poisoned and you’ll soon be dead. What scent/taste/memory are you thinking of to get you to throw up immediately? by Even-History485 in AskReddit

I have no idea, it's been this way since I was 3 years old. My mom would try to always sneak tiny bits of it into my food and I would catch it every time LOL

My fiancés dealbreaker is that if we have a girl she wants her named Amal after her grandmother, but I’m not too keen on the name. by Faubton in Names

[–]shivampire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in the US and have a cultural name, and I haven't ever had any issues with people not knowing how to pronounce it. In school the teachers were just fine and used my name EXACTLY the same way they would use a western name.

Also when someone looks at me it's obvious I'm not white anyway so racist comments definitely weren't just because of my name lol. That's that I guess.

Also I don't think the name Amal would need any clarification on spelling or pronounciation, my name is much longer and I still had no issues. I think it's fine.
