This 26-year-old became a small-town California mayor. Then a jet dumped fuel on her snakebit city

It's like this dumb poo poo - - but for birth certificates and with precisely zero external goading required because everyone believes they're one viral video away from being one of those unboxing family success stories

Baby names have always been faddish, I can't muster up any animosity on this whatsoever There were probably people complaining in 50AD about kids being named after Jesus' apostles, instead of using "proper names"

I can believe a kid named Zebulon hating that their name sounds like a star trek planet (yes I get why it sounds like a star trek planet), I knew a Beltran that hated his name because "it's a transformer name."

Amphigory posted:Baby names have always been faddish, I can't muster up any animosity on this whatsoever There's been a definite trend of choosing more a wider range of names though, whatever reasons people may have. As an example, the 10 most popular girls' names in Denmark were given to 140‰ of girls born in 2018 compared to 267‰ in 1985.

US President Warren Harding's middle name was Gamaliel which while being biblical, sounds like an elf that got lost on his way to Rivendell.

Honestly names are only weird if you're not used to hearing them. I live in Tennessee, which is literally nonsense that no one is even sure where it originates from- the best people can guess is that it's a Cherokee modification of some Yuchi word, and in it is somewhere called Tullahoma which I can't even begin to think sounds weird because I've just known it all my life, but when I think about it in context to other names or places it comes off as weird. It sounds more like a flower than anything. Give people enough time and Zune Tusux will be just as accepted as any other name out there.

It was bait and you fell for it In all seriousness, it's not that unusual to use parts per thousand in the context of births/deaths, though the specific symbol of ‰ isn't used that often. Phlegmish has a new favorite as of 00:09 on Feb 13, 2020 |

‰ is used in some Euro countries for blood alcohol levels. I’ve never seen it for population statistics.

Birth and death rates are nearly always expressed as the number of births/deaths per thousand people. You're right that the ‰ symbol isn't generally used in those cases, but it's still technically correct. Krankenstyle did nothing wrong.
