fakenaming

Referring to a person by a name they made up instead of their real birth name, especially when referring to them by this new name is meant to give legitimacy to the idea that the person is no longer who/what they actually are. For example, if a person is male but wants others to think of him as a female, he might change his name to Caitlyn, and demand to be called Caitlyn, demonizing anyone who calls him by his actual name. He wants you to fakename him. If you do not, he will say that you are "deadnaming" him, a term used to manipulate people into feeling guilty for being honest.

Bruce said "Hey, stop calling me Bruce! Call me Caitlyn, to show that you fully agree with the idea that I'm a woman. Do it or else you are not a good friend. Just accept me as being anything I claim to be!"
His honest friend said "But that would be fakenaming you, and it would make it seem like I agree that you are a woman. You are not a woman, so forcing me to call you by your fake name is forcing me to lie. Forcing me to lie is not something a good friend would do. Just accept me as being honest!"

fate

The series of events that has taken place from the beginning of time and will be that way until the end of it. Everything in the future can be known if you know everything about the present. That's because every single thing happens for a reason, specifically some factor of the past. I am writing this definition because I was bored. I was bored because there was nothing to do. There was nothing to do because no one was home and/or online to talk to. etc. Absolutely every single event is predictable through cause and effect. If you knew absolutely every single factor effecting a situation, then you would know exactly what the outcome would be. Whatever the universe was created by, the very first event that started it started a chain reaction that will last forever through the magic of cause and effect. Blah. I'm rambiling. If you don't know what I'm talking about by now then meh.

Almost the only thing that could contradict fate is if you believe in true free will. I personally don't. Nobody has free will. All your actions are determined by your personality and experiences. Your personality comes from your parents. Your experiences come from the outside world. Your parents and the outside world came from the creation of the universe. So if "God" or what have you, knew exactly everything about what he was creating, then how could he not know exactly every single thing that people would do and how the future would unfold? So if it's possible to predict the future without error by knowing everything about the present, then wouldn't fate have to be true? Actually, I wouldn't mind getting emailed if someone wants to argue with me or something =P lol

Manos: Hands of Fate

Possibly the worst movie ever made. It was made (slightly) famous by MST3K when they snarked the movie.

Not a movie that one can make out to, for one may experience bouts of laughter and may bite one's lover's tongue.

Me: Did you see "Manos: Hands of Fate?"?
Friend: Yesh. I watched it while the master was away.

Playing Fate

To do good or bad acts intentionally to receive the karma (Refer to Buddhism) that you wish to gain. Doing good acts would award you with good karma which the person who carried out the acts can use the good karma to help them in the future. The same theory would work with bad karma.

Mr x "With your luck you will never win the prize."
Mr Y "Hey, if i keep Playing Fate i just may"

Fate

Fate is the product of all the experiences and decisions we have made in our lives. Fate is inevitable but its not predetermined.

We are the once who make our own fate, we should not hold on to it. What you can do now can determine what you may have for tomorrow.
