Magneto would be a great name for a son.

How many strippers out there you think use the name "Magenta"

That's another gear grinder, parents thinking they're clever with the spelling on kids names. Like Steffiny and Cristofer. Like, just stick with the basics. Or just go way outside the box and name your kid Nintendo.

Also, parents talking about every little thing their kids do as if it's so amazing, like no other kid is like that.

That was one classic George Carlin bit on names

Probably easier to get that on a birth certificate than ProfessorX

If we were having a boy I was shooting for: Bruce Wayne or Bruce Banner.

After watching Survivor for decades, and knowing people who are teachers, I've learned that some people honestly just dont know how to spell.

On Survivor, sure it might be easy to criticize since we see how their names are all spelt, but when everyone had to write down names, we see how bad some are at spelling. Some might be joke spellings, but for most part the botched names are legit.

And some parents honestly dont know how to spell names. Extreme circumstances, but I've heard some kids names were just spelt with random letters, but they were regularly pronounced names. So these spellings might be cheap attempts at being clever sometimes, but others it's simply just bad spelling by parents.

It's only a matter of time until names start getting spelled with combinations of letters that appear like other letters when smushed together. For example, l3 looks like B, and lvl looks like M

I think that's a bigger revelation than when we found out that ICT stood for Ice Cream Truck.

Of course, when he changed his username to exactly that it became plainly obvious.

Still my favorite avatar on OS.

Those spots were great. I liked the one where dude is riding in car with a woman, when he found out she was a Buckeye, he jumps out of the moving car. Gets up, yells"Wolverines!"
