the problem comes into play when WE DON'T KNOW WHO OR WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT.

It's not about the nicknames themselves; it's the sheer plethora of them pertaining to the same person/show that some of us can't keep up and I think that's ridiculous to expect us to.

It ain't gonna change, quite obviously, because people inevitably miss the point of requests like mine and then also get belligerent about it and do it more. (Not you.) So, yeah, the middle school bullshit annoys me.

I also acknowledge people use DU for different reasons. I come here for information not entertainment. I guess that's why it bothers me, and that's my problem.
