Doesn't bother me at all.

Reminds me--it's not really out of requirement, but when speaking in an asian language (Chinese, Korean, Japanese) third person is often used. Although I'm not quite sure why... could be a respect thing.

For example, sometimes to say something like "I really admire you." but more respectful, it's spoken "This *name* really admires big brother/big sister/etc."
