(I'm sure there are but I don't feel like looking it up but...) are there any other Ethelred's other than the Unready?
Because that doesn't seem like one you'd want to name your kid after.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Recap: So I stayed up to 2:30 this morning to get some documents to two different people so they would be on the people's desk at 8 this morning. Went to sleep, but was awakened by damn fighting dogs at 7:30 this morning.
I have not heard from one of the people at all today, the other person I just heard from.
Why again did I bust my ass to get this stuff out? I feel like an asshole.

From the twitter, there seems to be a huge storm over London tonight. So now I'm hoping the baby gets called Thunder.

Eta: you are not the asshole in that scenario, le nubian.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That's my nephew's middle name!
My BiL had whimsical urges with his children's names and my sister negotiated them to middle names. Though half of my side calls them by their middle names anyway...
You just have to imagine that the occasional thought of "a dagger would be so useful right about now" goes through a royal head.
Well, there's this song...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The guy has already had a bit of trouble with the law, not sure what, but being taken to small claims court could end up seriously screwing things up for him, and not helping his girlfriend and their kid either. I think they're basically good but stupid people who keep making bad decisions, and I'm probably better off having nothing more to do with them. Not that I'm not pissed off about it.

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