How hard is it to remember the name Jessica? It's a fairly common name - think about it, I bet everyone knows at least 5 Jessicas. At the very least, people know 5. I'm pretty sure I'm friends with more than 10 on Facebook, but I'm not gonna check that.
It's like forgetting people forgetting their age. When you're older, that's understandable, because at a certain point in life you stop telling people your real age and around then your memory starts to go. But seriously? My name is Jessica, not Jennifer. I don't even like the name Jennifer - I have nothing against the name, except that it is not mine and I hate being called that.
Jessica does not equal Jennifer.
On that note, why are all the good video games never centered around mainly a female protagonist? Do girls not like to play video games? Clearly, I'm in the minority on that one as well, seeing as how I think knowing and getting a person's name right is important and shows that you actually care about the person, but I digress. Most video games have the option of a girl being the protagonist, for example: Mass Effect, Saint's Row, Jade Empire (since those are the games I know off the top of my head that offer female protagonists but its not the standard choice). But rarely are their games of just girl protagonists that are actually, ya know, emulatable - which isn't even a word, but I want a character I could actually somewhat be. Since I'm not Lara Croft, I have no character I can relate to, except Daisy from Mario.
Speaking of which, right external carotid arteries located on the right side of the neck do not stretch, for those of you who are curious about that and wonder why it's not like Twizzlers, which taste disgusting.
I hate cherries.
