My period started yesterday, and my co-workers are slowly backsliding into using the wrong pronouns. My brother has also stopped calling me Will, with the "it's not what's on your birth certificate" "justification". So it's a double, maybe triple whammy of disphoria and depression. To top it off, a friend said she'd meet me for lunch today and then stood me up.

Okay, this one is probably the First World Problems of First World Problems, but I have this massive pet peeve.

Whenever I search for "Dark Knight" in, say, Skyrim mods or something, I expect to find stuff like... this:

(click to show/hide)
(click to show/hide)

Instead I find stuff like this:

(click to show/hide)

Don't get me wrong, I like Batman, but...

(click to show/hide)

The worst part is, "Death Knight" and "Dark Knight" and what have you tend to carry different connotations, so you can't just use "Death Knight" as a synonym because it isn't!

There's Shadowknight, too, which also carries its own connotations but generally encompasses both Death Knight and Dark Knight, but then you get THIS!

(click to show/hide)

SEARCH ENGINES ARGH

And to make matters worse, almost no one uses Shadowknight outside of the Everquest community... so you can't even succeed at THAT.

tl;dr: Batman is preventing me from getting my geek on.

Might I suggest searching, instead, for Blackguard?  Its got similar connotations and may yield more desirable results.

I feel that way a lot too.   I think that all I am is just an annoyance going around spouting stuff nobody cares about anyway.  I often believe that there really is no point of me even existing at times.

What's worse is that there's also the idea that I'm getting upset over something fictional and thus it's stupid of me to say anything.

I have a vicious head cold that's left me with a sore throat, runny nose, nausea, a headache, and lightheadedness that nearly kept me from crawling out of bed 13 hours after I got in.

And thus you're preventing yourself from enjoying a very awesome mode.

I'll try that, yeah.  Might run into the same problem of Shadowknight (as in "not enough people use it") but anything's worth a shot.

I find that more annoying than anything. At first it was edgy, but now it's just the "Jerry, Jerry, Jerry" of the board.

I'd like it if someone actually yelled "JERRY, JERRY, JERRY!" when a flamewar starts...if only because it'd amuse me.
