Naming Your Child
Ever come across someone and wonder what their parents were thinking when they named them? Sometime ago, I was on a conference call for work when we heard someone call in late. The moderator paused and asked who had joined.
"Walter." "Walter, what's your last name?" "Melon." ... There was a long pause from the group. Yep: Walter Melon. It was so distracting and I couldn't stop from cracking up, eventually having to mute the phone. How is it that someone like that gets through their childhood years? How do you grow up and not hate your parents for it? I can't imagine the daily torture that the poor guy must have gone through. Ah, I suppose it could be worse, though. Good morning, class! My name is... I hope that is a mistake. Last edited by Kitsune; 06-11-2004 at 10:06 AM. |
