HOW TO ESCAPE THE IDENTIFICATION TRAP AND TURN IT INTO FUN.
don't understand. Please explain.
Japan in Japanese is “Nippon” or “Nihon” while in English it is called “Japan”. In most languages around the world, it is called a name similar to “Japan” (for example, “Japon” in French or “Giappon” in Italian). “Japan” and “Nippon” do not sound similar.
do you force other people to call you the same name you call yourself ?
do you correct people when they "mispronounce" your name ?
An excellent example! Thank you!
YES; I INSIST to be called DEUTSCH from EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE!!! And if they don't obey me, I will be utterly utterly OFFENDED! HaHa!!! Punishment by offense! LOLOLOLOL!!
this reminds me so much of this "death by tray it shall be!" from Eddie Izzard:
