My friend wrote an email one day and said "some things"...she was told in big red letters to write something better...this was before she had even hit the send button...she wrote something better, much better. |

They asked me the same thing, so I made up a reasonably sounding fake name, but they wouldn't "accept" that. So..... I put in "Shuck Fhu", and that one was accepted as a 'real name'. ROFL Weirdly enough, some weeks later I sent out an email from one of my yahoo accounts, (the same one that I used in signing up for youtube), and for whatever weird reason, yahoo linked to my youtube account without permission. My regular yahoo nic in the 'sent from' line in the email was changed to my youtube nic, Shuck Fhu. I never changed that! Just weird how youtube seems to be linking to other accounts like yahoo, etc. Most sites online now, when we sign up, want 'real' names, 'real' phone numbers, etc. Once I put in an old phone number, and the site was like, "not in working order". And some sites encourage folks to 'sign in' with their facebook acct or twitter, etc. I swear I think they are ALL part of the same thing, and just want us all to use our one true name signing in, everywhere. As if. LOL |
