yeah, Had the same feelings. I really despise that "My" terminology
myself. Total lemming-words, like Win this and Win that. It's
Microsoft-Speak and I, a card-holdling,
pry-from-my-cold-dead-fingers Mac diehard, have a bit of hesitation
typing those words. And now, it's etched in stone in the code
forever. Kinda like the RFC misspellings:
"So what if somebody (probably Tim Berners-Lee, who wrote the
original HTTP spec) was a better engineer than speller? Yes, the
correct spelling is referrer, but the term referer is embedded into
the code of millions of browsers and servers and it's too late to
change now."

I'm not at all sure I could bring myself to name a folder beginning
with the word "my". Every nerve twitches at the thought. I already
have a serious problem with "My Computer", "My Documents" etc. To me
this is like "My first coloring book :-)", eeeuuuw. Surprise! I am
not a 5 year old. Are folders whose names do not begin with the word
"my" in some way not really mine. Or is this actually a dynamic
scoping mechanism like in Perl?
