What caused such a big fail with the "Gigi" nonsense? There is a character in Gilmore Girls named Gigi Hayden (https://gilmoregirls.fandom.com/wiki/Georgia_Hayden); in the Netflix subtitles she is inconsistently referred to as "G.G.", "Gigi", and maybe also "GG". What I think happened is that whoever wrote the subtitles of "The Great Stink" (a Netflix employee or someone being paid by Netflix I guess) poorly used the find and replace function in their text editor/word processor. Why did they use find and replace? (1) They used shorthand to quickly write the subtitles then later replaced the shorthand with the full terms/phrases/names/words. (2) They were trying to make the subtitles less inconsistent. The specific find and replaces operation they probably did was find "gg" (case insensitive), replace with "Gigi". They may've written "gg" as shorthand for "Gigi", and/or they replaced "GG" with "Gigi" for consistency.

Lesson to be learned:
* Pay more attention when using find and replace unless you want people looking at your weird output text, reverse engineering your workflow, and getting a previous data state.
* Use regular expression (regex) with find and replace and replace for better results. For example, consider the string "For the rain falls mainly in Spain or on the plains, or, the door was replaced in the house. Or... the toilet cover was broken." If you want to replace "or" with "and" a poor way of doing this would be to replace all instances of substring "or" with "and"; this was basically the same dumb thing that happened with the Netflix subtitles and would result in the new string "Fand the rain falls mainly in Spain and on the plains, and, the doand was replaced in the house. and... the toilet cover was broken." This method sorta works, but it makes nonsense like "Fand" and "doand". A better method would be to use word boundaries (\\b) in regex; replace /\\bor\\b/ with /and/ results in a string with much less nonsense/errors: "For the rain falls mainly in Spain and on the plains, and, the door was replaced in the house. and... the toilet cover was broken."
