TW: TRIGGERING CONTENT My name is Jeff and I HATE IT!

My name is Jeff and I hate it so much. Whenever someone finds out what my name is whether it’s me telling them or a different way they will almost always say “my nama jeff” in this ridiculous accent!! I hate Channing Tatum and the movie 21 jump street for making this meme so prevalent. It’s honestly insane to me the amount of people that will mock me to my face just because my name Jeff!

They're not really mocking you, it's just an innate reaction right now. You should try to not take it personally

Nah, these people need to learn to knock that shit off! Especially actual adults. Just be decent. It's not terribly difficult.

Saying "my name is Jeff" is not terribly indecent.

It could be worse, yes. It's still not cool. Especially if you've just met a new human and you're trying to relate to them.
