Psider-Man, who refreshingly protects and hydrates the Big Apple

But watch out, when infected by Venom, he becomes Hard Psider-Man.

The form said "name", not "first name".

I would've gone for "spidey." They didn't specify that it couldn't be a nickname.

I once fucked up with this while enrolling for my bachelor's degree. To me name implies the full name, with last name and any other names and words in between. So I put there (I have no second names etc). Then I had to separately enter my last name, which was weird but okay, I guess that's relevant info that can't always easily be extracted from the full name.

Of course, I then got a letter with "Dear ,". It became a meme in my friend group that my name is basically my first name followed by infinite repetitions of my last name. And I haven't really learnt from it either, it has happened at least once more because I will always interpret "name" as full name.

Okay, hear me out

What if we put 'last name' first to put down so that we never fuck it up again?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

if you put the last name first then it would no longer be a last name.

Or just "Name". Not all people have a clear first and last name.

Given name/family name fixes this, including four cultures where family name goes first.
