I certainly hope that in real life you don't behave the way you do here.

Well, I've never particularly liked that practice, and don't follow it
myself, if the person has a proper name. Nickname sare fairer game, but
even then I don't do it. And if you disapprove of Windows people's names
being mangled, or misrepresented, why do you do it yourself? Reason:
you're trying to discredit Roy, or you think it makes you smart or funny
or big

making this group a less unpleasant place.
