For decades, I have refused to use my middle name in conversation, documents and virtually everything else because it is my birth-father's first name. There have been a handful of times where I had to use it on a legal document, but beyond that I've had no hassles or had to jump through any hoops.

That's what I was going to say - a LOT more back issues. Chiropractors would be overjoyed.

Well, you are correct: Websites do this because it makes them money. It's all about the clicks, baby. And they know that if they change the graphic or reword the title a little bit, people will click again and again. Isn't Capitalism great? sarcasm

People fall for it because by and large, everybody loves to gossip.

The only way to win is to not play the game.

You know how much Hollywood loves prequels, right?

People can change if they're willing to put in the effort to do so.

Reduce the amount of news and media you consume. It isn't healthy. Check in with your own mental health on a regular basis and use that as a barometer. When you start feeling overly stressed and frustrated, it's time to take a break.

I mean, you had to know what you were in for just from reading the description of the film, yeah?
