As somebody with an unusual #name (which I changed by #deedPoll), I'll occasionally hear people ask loaded questions like "Yeah, but what's your REAL name? The one on your #birthCertificate?" 😡
Well #FuckTheHaters. As of today, my birth certificate's been retroactively updated to show my "real" name.
Here's how I took advantage of the #law of #Scotland to do it:
There's a certain kind of person who, upon hearing my unusual name, immediately asks whether that's what's on my birth certificate (with an underlying implication that it's not my 'real' name, whatever that means, if it isn't). Well: as of this week, thanks to a quirk in Scottish law, the name I've used every day for almost two decades DOES appear my birth certificate. Fuck the haters.
I made it despite the #haters in the Harvester OS Install Wizard doubting me along the way
Here I am at almost 60 jammin on deck to Nickelback.

When I get the hate, I repost (I bet it really bugs 'em)... 😆😆😆
