See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Still, when you consider I was nearly named Greta instead, I think my name worked out just fine.

You actually look... not entirely unlike the one Greta I've ever met, so when I read that I instantly thought, Oh, yes, of course she could have been a Greta!

I mean, apologies if you really hate it and think it's obviously completely wrong for you, but the Greta I knew was smart, funny, warm and creative and had eyes and a smile very much like yours, so all my associations with the name are about as positive as positive could be.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In I can't tell if this is inappropriate or not news:

It's about the Jilli-est thing you could say under the circumstances.

My father was named for his mother's brother, Roy, but in college he told everyone his name was Royal. Delusions of grandeur? Hell, yes.

Art Crawl!!!

Liese! I didn't know!! How cool is that?

BTW, I don't think my brother even knew that tradition and yet, my niece has my mother's first name (Miyako) as her middle name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, Honey Wheeler should totally be my backup alias.

Oh, and porn star names: Mine is Bunny Beach, which I think is pretty awesome, but my former housemate had the hands-down winner: Fluffy DiPillo.

Those are both excellent!

Fuck Yeah Ryan Gosling is good times. I have a weird soft spot for him, though.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think I've told about my friend Candace Groskreutz who never went by "Candy" and refused to take her husband's last name, "Colt." Also her middle name was "Kaye": Candy Kaye Colt.

My porn name (pet name plus street) would be: Sparky Franjo.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My porn name (pet name plus street) would be: Sparky Franjo.

I'd be Bruce Wayne Gardenia, so I'm going to stick with Baba.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'd be Bruce Wayne Gardenia

That's what Superman calls Batman.

IN BED.

Compassionately intolerant

My porn name is Tuffy Parkside, which always struck me more as a plucky, 1940s girl detective.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I love Hey Girl, or FYRG. So much that my friend and I are constantly saying, "Hey Baby!" to her daughter. Like, "Hey Baby! Are you teething? That's pretty awesome. Want to chew on my hand. That's cool." "Hey Baby! Where'd your sock go? You're really good at losing socks. Good going, baby." And so on.
