Is there anything other than parental goodwill to stop people naming their children something truly disgusting like Smegwina or Arsezekiel

namesake posted:The only names that should be banned are those that are computer language terms to delete the record or database if they are input and things consisting of unpronouncable syllables. Otherwise it's fine or a case of terrible parenting but that's something for them to figure out. Can you honestly say you'd have been happy to find yourself in this world named Smegwina or Arsezekiel? Apparently the registering officer can reject names that "[contain] obscenities, numerals, misleading titles, or are impossible to pronounce". Smeg seems to fly under the radar though, I think it being detected as an obscenity would depend on whether the RO had watched Red Dwarf and from personal experience of the kind of people who work in local government administration that's a long shot crispix fucked around with this message at 02:50 on May 3, 2020 |

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:So are we as a society going to start talking about the 9-5 grind any time soon? Because right now I'm defaulting to a roughly 1-9am/2-10am sleep pattern and I feel loving amazing. I'm getting really productive around 5pm to 10pm. There's going to be a long way to go with that, culturally. I will always remember working nights for over a year when I lived in Edinburgh city centre. It was a loving nightmare for many reasons but something that really pissed me off was sometimes after work while I was winding down in the morning I'd nip out to the shop in my trackies or whatever for some beer or wine and I would always get glares and sometimes even tut-tuts from people who apparently assumed I was a jobless day-drinker

I'd like to say I was smart enough to have intended that but it wouldn't be true. I fancy they'd be like sort of a cross between gondoliers and the RNLI, hitting the blades with big sticks where necessary - hitting things with sticks being both probably the earliest human occupation and also (probably not coincidentally) most people's strategy of first resort when troubleshooting urgent problems involving things that are big and threatening or uncooperative. I wonder if any of those countryside alliance loons have ever jammed a big tree trunk or something between the blade of a wind turbine and its tower. It's like something they'd do crispix fucked around with this message at 00:48 on May 7, 2020 |
