Comment on A scandal about Bill Gates would be called Bill Gates-gate.

Watergate is just the name of a hotel/shop/office complex in DC. The Watergate scandal had nothing to do with water, it's just named after the place where it occurred. The -gate suffix for scandals is dumb.

Thank you, I hate this trend so much. I’d rather be called a gate-gatekeeping douche than see it spread even more.
