Last week, a guy who used to work for me had his middle name legally changed to "Danger Zone." He's in his mid 30s.

The next day he signed up for karate lessons.

~A Purely Preposterous Pussy~
One of my close friends teaches at a private school in Thailand. She tells me some of the names of her students and they're frankly usually hilarious and awesome.

Some of my favourites:
Latte
GunGun
PP
Jet Lee
Jelly
Nutt Nutt
Whern
Singha (which she tells me is a brand of beer there...?)
Marwins
Ksenia
Princess

I just...I can't imagine holding a little human in my arms for the first time and deciding their fate is to go through life as PP or GunGun or Latte...

Yep, pretty common at Thai restaurants in the US. Pretty mediocre beer, really.

I used to work for an IT consulting company and we had a programmer named Thomas Thomas. He was from India though so I think he changed his name to sound more American.

India has a huge Catholic population, and a weird naming tradition I can't remember the details of that causes the first name of one person to become last name of another. The result is tons of people with last names like Mathew and John.

Huge and tons in terms of absolute numbers, that is. Even a small minority is gigantic when you're talking a billion goddamn people.

From reading his facebook page I can't imagine this model citizen ever having any problems with others, least of all the police. I, for one, am shocked.
