Do you ever have the desire to correct someone's username when you type it? The ones that should have punctuation make me

I think I should have an apostrophe, right?

I should also have an apostrophe! When I signed up I didn't know if an apostrophe was a "special character" and if it was allowed...so I omitted it.
My user name drives me insane because of it. And the "ain't" word.

Usernames are difficult for the quasi-dyslexic...

Funny you posted this. I was thinking about usernames this morning and how I sometimes don't pay attention and I say one thing in my head but when I really look I can't believe I thought it said that.

Yes! Baxter, like you! Yours also drives me nuts because I feel weird shortening it, because I know that Baxter is your dog, so I feel weird calling you Baxter

That's why I picked a nice easy username that everyone could shorten and wouldn't look weird.
I like to make peoples lives easy... it's the "fixer" in me.

I always read authenticnow as "authentic-cow" I have no idea why I drop the N.
Sorry AN, 
Plus I have a hard time with UR_AN_IDIOT. I have to shorten her name because I feel like I’m calling her an idiot
Sorry UR.
I have to shorten idiot85 to I85 for the same reason, but then his name sounds like a highway to me.
Sorry I85
I love my screen name. I can work it into many sentences IRL. It's my own little private joke

I love my name and all its awesomeness!
Course it was my nickname as a kid.
I always have trouble with DS's name. But only because when I see it on one of my posts...I assume I have screwed up and am in trouble.

It's okay, I've been called worse . You're not the first one to say that, btw. Not sure why the N goes away for a lot of people!
I can't type can'tlivewithouth without the apostrophe!
DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.

I kept reading DS's name as DEEPLY SACRED. Idk why. I thought maybe she was really religious.
I also read Lady Kevorkian the same way.
And I'm glad to learn who Baxter is.
