Lawful Name Change

[Al]

Shocking revelation:

My name is actually short for Orange, but my mother has a speech impediment that means she pronounces R as W, but her favourite colour is orange, so Oran became Owen.

</sarcasm>

Brb changing my name to Purp of the Family Derp.

omg lmfao

I am Indi of the family Go.
Together, the three of us can unite to create a new clan.

lmfao :P

V is for virgin of course <3

[Vio]

Tyrian is better, and similar to Tyrion of the Lannisters, one of the best characters by far in GoT.

Yeah, but the bit about "kings, nobles, priests and magistrates" doesn't work out so well for a Libertarian.
True, half the reason I watch GoT is for that character, but I wouldn't consider him part of my identity.
As soon as I thought of "Vio", I knew it fit me perfectly, and I don't regret the change at all.

All my friends, college classmates, even my teachers all approve, and are now calling me Vio.
How is it the one group of people who I don't have the support of is WG?

Because IRL, you've surrounded yourself with a group of people who have social inadequacies, because those are the people you are comfortable with.
Think of that girl we know, and her friends, and your friends, and you.
Here in WG, most of us have good emotional and intellectual maturity, and we can spot a socially degrading act when we see one.
Your problem is that you don't trust us enough to end this folly.

Shit just got real.

Is this for real or is it total bullshit?

[SquelchyFish]

Aren't your parents rustled?

I read it thinking the exact same thing.
I don't want this to be a pitfall in your successes that you have had.
It seems like a slide back to me into some place that makes you more comfortable with who you think you are.

So...V-Diddy or V-Dawg :herp:

Man speaks truth.

[Vio]

As good as your advice is, I'm choosing to disregard all of it.
Vio is the biggest choice I've made in my life so far, and I have never been more confident.
Thank you all, but I absolutely will not be moved on this one.

Well, none of us know you as well as you know yourself, but we DO know public perception of you.
I hope you're making this decision with the realisation that the WG community is going to reflect the greater community.
