That's just extra spice on top. I fucking hate it when people I don't know assumes it okay to make up a nickname for me.

- davidw 16y agoReally? I get called Dave, David, or even Davide (I live in Italy so even David might come out as "Dah-veed") and I really don't care as long as the person is nice and respectful and otherwise pleasant to communicate with (annoying recruiters don't really count). I mostly use it as a measure of how clued-in they are about me, but even some of the people who have mistaken me for a Davide (not the statue, unfortunately), have been very well-intentioned people with interesting things to say.
- nuclear_eclipse 16y agoI don't care about slight misspellings or mispronunciation, (I get it all the time with the last name of "Reese"), by my biggest pet peeve is people assuming that John is short for Jonathon, even if/after they see my named spelled with the "h"...
- warfangle 16y agoPoint, some spell it Johnathan. I, myself, spell it Jonathan.
