• Pony Fan Renames Themselves "Starfire", and Slate Responded


    A reader of one of Slate's columns submit a story about their co-worker who has apparently gone all-in on the pony world with a name change. The writer seems to hint that "Starfire" isn't the exact name for anonymity purposes, but it is very much based around pony with a similar feel. Currently there is a bit of internal tension in the workplace over a name like that seeming unprofessional, but the Slate write recommends just rolling with it anyway as plenty of people out there have parent-given ridiculous names that people understand in the end. A client wouldn't know the difference.
