I donโt think it should be socially acceptable for people to say they are โbad with names.โ No one is bad with names. That is not a real thing. Not knowing peopleโs names isnโt a neurological condition; itโs a choice. You choose not to make learning peopleโs names a priority. Itโs like saying, โHey, a disclaimer about me: Iโm rude.

Joey Fatone's last name was going to be โFat Oneโ no matter how great he was, and even though they didn't know at their age that Lance Bass was gay outright, they sensed he'd make a better good friend and confidante. As for Justin Timberlake, well, JT was the coolest and hottest, but too flashy, so we couldn't trust him to be faithful. J. C. Chasez was the smart compromise.
Mindy KalingI once heard that Quentin Tarantino, who I obviously love and think is a genius, says that there's no such thing as guilty pleasure, there's only pleasures. And I do love that idea, because I do think that there's a pretentiousness when people make a list of their favorite things. I like to live a life where I don't think of my pleasures as guilty pleasures.
