Names totally depend on the person in question. Cool person = cool name.
Absolutely. I knew a guy in college named Marvin. Ever since meeting him, I like the name because he is smart, funny, and kind. Gotta love it.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am grateful that it doesn't make me coma girl and it rocks.
I envy you. Well, not right now, since I'll need Flexoril for the (unending) flights tonight, and the sleep/pain relief combo is welcomed now. But, normally, very annoying. Still, no pain=good.
I was in snarly angry pissymaking pain (ask around here, folk'll tell ya) for over a year. Close to two, IIRC. If I'd just relaxed and taken the damned pills -- well, it wouldn't have been fun, but every little bit of non-morass of the soul would have been appreciated.
I hope to not have aimless chronic pain again, but more than that, I pray I've worked out how not to compound the misery.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
My favorite baseball name? Razor Shines.
That's pretty classic. Enoch Slaughter sounds like the kind of guy you wouldn't want to meet during the filming of Deliverence.
Van Lingle Mungo. You could write a song about a name like that...

Enos Slaughter. Nickname "Country." And quite the bigot.

That's it. Enos - definitely off the name list.

There are names I've ended up loving, because I know people by that name, and there are names that have been ruined for me, in just the same way.
I dated a guy for several months to whom I only referred by his SCA name, because I had too many associations with his real name. Although actually the associations weren't all that bad. Looking back on it, maybe some sensible part of my subconscious was actually trying to spare me even worse associations with that name, and only let him ruin a perfectly good medieval Scandinavian name.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Nick's the kinda guy you can trust. Nick's your buddy. Nick's the kinda guy you drink beers with. The kinda guy that doesn't care if you puke in his car.
