Only you both are wrong and you got typical bias confirmation. I'm sorry you lack proper education.

Well I disagree with you and with 18 years teaching English from preschool to C1 level (CAE) I prefer to trust my own knowledge than yours. I think you are either making this rule up or can not accept you are wrong, which would be incredibly ironic in this case.

Start doing it on a daily basis and see how people look at you. That's a pretty good indicator...
Again, sorry your mad about your education. I tried to correct you but as usually you refuse to accept you could be wrong.
I've linked the information many times in many of these ridiculous threads. These people don't read anything that gets linked so they stay ignorant.
You don't even know what a direct address is?

Everybody already knows memory is fallible.
If you say the Mandela Effect is entirely based on false memories, I'm going to disagree - and that's already established.
We aren't talking about common mistakes, we're talking about iconic changes that affect things we see and hear about everyday (eg: a Star Wars fan that's heard the iconic line hundreds of times).
When you leave for work, do you have to look at a map - or do you know how to get there?
It seems childish to waist pages baiting someone into a point that could of been done in one reply.
All of this stuff has already been established - the conversation has gone past faulty memory.
The problem is that I think you know that.

Ok, Ruiner1978, I will do that. Ruiner1978, I will demonstrate via sentences how it is not correct to use a direct address out of context. I will show you that it is most definitely out of place, Ruiner1978. Ruiner1978, you must understand grammar is there for a reason. It protect us, Ruiner1978, from having to hear people butcher a sentence. I'm sorry, Ruiner1978, that you aren't quite quick enough to figure out how to properly use a direct address.
Do me a favor "English Teacher", start using people's names in a direct address every day and see how they look at you.

Ok Raymundoko, I will.
See what I did there?
Now get busy on the internets and show me a page to look at. Or shut up.

Yes, I see you improperly punctuated the sentence. You must have a comma before and after a noun of direct address. More proof you don't teach English?
