atm I work with someone that has the last name H00fard, and I feel like a middle-schooler as I quietly snicker every time I read her name.

I'm a bit torn on this: for now it feels maybe a bit "poor kid", but it would be awesome if she went on to kick absolutely everybody's butt.

in a 'too much time on ilx' moment, my company apparently has a Rh0nd@ Butt.

Was watching a 1976 episode of Kojak and it featured an actor called Uegene O'Neill. He got shot to death early in the episode and never had another acting credit.

I’ve crossed the Bong Bridge between Superior WI and Duluth MN a bunch of times and have also stayed at the Bong State Recreation Area in after a nearby Phish show where thousands of other hippies had the same idea and everyone was hoping there was a campsite number 420

Saw a name on a ticket in the queue last week and I had to wonder if it was cute or cruel if your last name is Duckworth for one to name their son Donald.

I was reading a story about the Iced Earth guitarist who was arrested for the Jan 6 thing, and another person indicted was listed. Had to re-read it a couple times to verify that "Albuquerque" wasn't where he was from, but his first name.

counterpoint: albuquerque is a bitchin' name and should not have been wasted on a treason larper
