I just realized

[Sarky Devotchka]

I have two half brothers, one is named Mark, the other's named Harmon. MARK HARMON! HA HA! this is kind of like when I realized that The Count on Sesame Street was named "the count" as a play on words. for years, I thought he was just a count who happened to like numbers.

[Nuzzolese]

Oh my god you're right, that is a clever play on words! That totally explains it.

[mickill]

Speaking of which, I went to school with a rather rotund kid named Bobby Waterhouse. I don't know...I thought it was pretty funny at the time.

Then he died.

Just kidding, he didn't die. I don't think.

[Nuzzolese]

I used to go to school with a guy named Justin Coffee. I didn't think it was funny until years later.

[ericlee]

There's two people that I converse with on a daily basis and I still laugh whenever I put thought into their names.

One is Harry Mitts and the other is Mike Woodcock.

[voltanapricot]

There was some dick head two years above me at school called Richard Cranium.

[mickill]

I knew of a girl named Anita Ho. Friend of a friend. I'm not making this up.

[tracky]

mark harmon


i don't get it :confused:

[TurdBerglar]

i don't get it either

[cosmo105]

i went to school with a guy named Guy White. so on attendance rolls it was White, Guy. loved it. his parents were mean.

one of my best friends growing up was Damien...and his sister's name was Reagan.


my ex was friends with a girl named Misty Sheets.

[Nuzzolese]

my ex was friends with a girl named Misty Sheets.

I knew a girl named Sunny Sites.

And a man named Golden Pancake.

And a couple of girls named Tina Venus and Jenny Pennington - which aren't intellectually amusing names, they just sound funny if you say them quickly.

[mickill]

You did not know a Golden Pancake. Liar.

I work with this 60 year old guy named Masaki Hashimoto, which I think is the coolest name ever. Supposedly he can easily kill a man with is bare hands, which makes his name even more deadly.

[Bob]

one of the weirder names i've seen is israel dejesus. i guess it's not that weird. but i think it is.

i knew a woman named chastity was pregnant, and a woman named sunny who had clinical depression. i guess that's not very funny either but there's a certain humor to it.

[voltanapricot]

You did not know a Golden Pancake. Liar.
Oh oh! My friend's dad is called Crispin Golding. And he's not dead. And I'm not lying.

[Bob]

Oh oh! My friend's dad is called Crispin Golding. And he's not dead. And I'm not lying.

yeah ok kid presentable

this is kind of like when I realized that The Count on Sesame Street was named "the count" as a play on words. for years, I thought he was just a count who happened to like numbers.

The whole "They call me The Count because I LOOOVEEEE to count things." line when he introduces himself didn't tip you off?

[voltanapricot]

I don't get it Bob.

[Nuzzolese]

I did too know a Golden Pancake! He was famous. In my hometown there were a lot of Pancakes. It was a big family or something and they were influential and kooky and they finally got around to naming of their sons Golden.

[Sarky Devotchka]

The whole "They call me The Count because I LOOOVEEEE to count things." line when he introduces himself didn't tip you off?

he doesn't say that, and if he did, I missed that episode!

[Sarky Devotchka]

I want to know a Golden Pancake. I knew a Sterling Silver.

[Planetary]

i know someone called bob hoskins.

[bigblu89]

he doesn't say that, and if he did, I missed that episode!

Ya must've missed it.

AHEM. proves nothing.

[Sarky Devotchka]

eh, well. perhaps I just wasn't listening. I mean, he was a count, they didn't just call him that. he wore a cape and lived in a castle and shit. why would he wear a cape if he wasn't a real count?

[beastiegirrl101]

there was a guy on my block growing up named Steel Magnet, and my brother went to school with a Daniel Knee. (Dan Knee)

I also know a girl named Piper and her two twin sisters Colby and Brie.

[Nuzzolese]

I knew brothers named Trey and Blaze which cracked me up because Trey sounds so passive, it carries things, you stack them at the cafeteria. But Blaze sounds so powerful.

I've known so many girls with names like Bailey, Reagan, Ceton, Hunter, Tyler, Taylor, McKenzie...Surname-ish sounding names.

Colby and Brie?! Can you imagine if they'd been triplets. Mozzarella or Gruyere?

[beastiegirrl101]

^ we call them the cheese sisters. ;)

[mickill]

Oh. I see. Well, I know a guy named Diamond Avocado. True story.

[Nuzzolese]

You're such a liar liar pants on fire.

When I was testing for my NC driver's license, the officer's names was Fagget. He was being a real jerk, too. But my picture came out beautifully.

[King of Rock $]

I have two half brothers, one is named Mark, the other's named Harmon. MARK HARMON! HA HA! this is kind of like when I realized that The Count on Sesame Street was named "the count" as a play on words. for years, I thought he was just a count who happened to like numbers.

I never realized that about the count. Of course the play on words doesn't work in my language, but I knew what he was called in english, so I should have known :confused:

[dancin2beasties]

there was a kid in my grade named Erik Heiney, and i had a student teacher once who's name was Penny Pazda

[supermars]

i had a customer at work who's first name was poopak. POOPAK!

[TAL]

My mom's name is Gun.

[b-grrrlie]

When I worked at a one-hour photo shop I had a customer called Z. He showed his drivers licence. He was quite a suck up, a wanna-be paparazzi.

[na§tee]

mark harmon - obviously a cultural divide here since i have no idea who he is.

however, i share your count confusion. i had no idea until this millennia too. och well!

it has recently occured to me that after even 8 years of knowing of your good self on this board that i don't know your name. or heiress'. i don't think i want to know either. it's sort of like the pope, or the queen mother, or the dalai lama. if i knew any of them were called beatrice or gertrude or isabella or whatever i'd be like "meh, they're still the pope/queen mother/dalai lama to me". like you will always be sarky.

p.s. yes, before anyone points out, i know all those famouses have names but you know what i mean!

[mickill]

Wasn't the Queen Mother's name just Elizabeth as well?

The Dalai Lama's name is Brian.

[Nuzzolese]

They call him B-rock.

[marsdaddy]

I knew a guy named Drew Garnet Peters. Guess you had to know him.
