I’ll start: “Shoving x down our throats”
the amount of people who have told me i’m one of the good ones because “at least you don’t shove gayness down our throats,” or “i’m fine with it if they dont shove it down our throats” has made me cringe whenever i hear that phrase used in any context, even harmlessly. how about you guys?
88
I’m Chinese and we fucking love 8 since it rhymes with fortune in Mandarin. I’m also born roughly around 1988 so a lot of people in my generational cohort have 88 in their screen names.
Every time I see username_88 I gotta try to figure out if they’re Chinese, my age, or a Nazi.
damn, that’s a rough one. Nazis really took a whole ass number
I graduated in 2014 and for awhile my email address was “lastname14@whatever.com”. My partner insists 14 isn’t tainted enough that I needed to worry about it, and possibly he’s right. Still, I did get a new email address, because I’d feel just awful if I’m giving my email to someone and they see the 14 and have to wonder if I mean it in the 14 words sense or not. Fucking internet nazis, ruining perfectly good numbers for the rest of us!
When I was young I had a random username generator give me 4994 as the suffix to my username to avoid duping, I got so lucky that when I forgot my passwords I’d shift the outer numbers going 5995 rather than the inner going 4884.
