Judge wants ban on strange names

[Doug]

So a man who wears a wig and gown to work wants to tell me what's strange?

I think the judge has a point *points to my previous post *

 

[Sewblon]

Who exactly decides what strange is?

The league of strange recognition, Duh! How'd you not know this?

I agree with this judge.

Can't go around calling you kids "Colourful Tulip Face" anymore can you? Fuckwits.

Agreed.

Is it a child of the Ministry of Funny walks?

It is called the Ministry of silly walks!

It's cruel to call your kid stuff like this... It should be banned.

Yay I hope it spreads, we'll finally be able to stop those dickhead celebrities from giving their kids stupid names.

fuck you Jamie Oliver. Poppy Honey, Daisy Boo and Petal Blossom Rainbow are not names!!! I'm gonna kill that guy if he ever complains that his kids are being picked on in school, guess who's fault it is?

Nope, that was changed by the League of strange recognition.

Damn that was a half decent recovery by me.

The League of strange recognition has no authority over Monty Python.

No.

You mean the man who has 20 years of on-the-job experience? Several degrees? Yes, yes he can.

Then I hold no respect for it's authority.

Too bad you have to, maybe when you spend two decades doing a high-end job and servicing your country you can maybe change it for the better.

True, and if he stops these names from being used, he'll have the thanks of alot of the next generation:

Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii
Sex Fruit
Keenan Got Lucy
Yeah Detroit
Number 16 Bus Shelter
Violence
Midnight Chardonnay

i totally agree.
giving children stupid names gives them a lesser chance in life.
however giving a judge that much power, its hard to draw a line

Why torture a poor, defenseless animal, when I can torment a small, obnoxious human child?

Because then the obnoxious child would not only resent the parent, but would as a direct result lash out at their surroundings and give us more to complain about with regards to the youth of today.

Whoa, whoa.
I didn't say anything about letting it grow to maturity.
All good things must end. Once they start thinking for themselves, I'll take them out back like Ol' Yeller.
*sniffs* That poor puppy...

It's cruel to call your kid stuff like this... It should be banned.

But damnit, it's hilarious!

I... I never thought of it that way before! It IS hilarious! Let me ammend my post...

It's cruel to call your kid stuff like this... It should be banned. It's brilliant and I like it lots and lots.

Good man!
Just remember: As long as it does not personally affect you in a negative manner, it has the potential to be funny!

I'm gonna call my kid abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz, or alphie for short.

Once again, I'm sat on the fence. On one hand yes, these sort of stupid names shouldn't be allowed, it'll only get worse until it ends up with insulting, ridiculous names.

On the other hand, restricting parent's rights to name their children what they like is exactly that - a restriction of their rights. And living in the UK, I am well aware how the rights of a retarded criminal scrounging off the State cos they won't get off their arse and work are of course more important than anyone elses.

 

[Fairee]

I would have a child, but he would try to usurp my throne, and I can't have that shit.

Brainwash them. Like the rest of your army.

There is one thing for stopping parents naming their own kids, but after reading some of the examples now I'm on the fence on the issue

 

[Socken]

Ah yes, I remember a case when a mother wanted to name her child The Thing, with the excuse that "Nobody would ever ask "How's the baby?" or "How's Bob?" All they ever ask is "How's the thing?""
I mean yeah it is funny for us outsiders, but imagine you were born as Adolf Hitler Osama Saddam Smith. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have as many friends as you do, or a job, or even be alive now.
