    Viz, by the sounds of it.

        This would have been blocked by the clerk over here.

        This reminds me, it's been something I've been meaning to ask someone for a while. A friend of mine's mum is German. She (the friend) keeps saying that everything in Germany is "either compulsory or forbidden". Is this (or its equivalent) a common phrase over there?

          A colleague at work is trying to convince me that there is a child in Sheffield named Chlamydia. I called bullshit and he insists that his missus worked in a playgroup there and the parents of the child liked the sound of the name and didn't know what it meant and hence christened her Chlamydia. As he is not the type to lie I took to Google and although I can't find the Sheffield kid I have found evidence of Kids in the States being called Chlamydia[^]. Some people just shouldn't be allowed to breed.

          Unusual names that I've heard about: Lemonjello and Orangejello (Sisters named after mom's favorite foods) Female (Nurse wrote it down before name was picked, mother liked it so it became official) Baby Girl and Baby Boy (Twins) Seven (7th child and sibling of the above mentioned twins)

              When my missus was studying nursing in Durban she used to do the pub crawls around town. One night she was with one of her friends and they were getting pissed off with a bloke trying to chat her up. She gave her the nurses residency phone number and told him to ask for Melena Stool. The next day he went there in person and asked for her. The reception staff screamed in laughter.

              If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

                There was a Seinfeld episode in which George disclosed the name he would use for his and Susan's child. It was Seven[^] although Susan laughed and then disclosed the name to her pregnant friend who then chose to use it. It was a quite a good episode, although I can't say there was ever really a bad episode.

                Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                  The Romans used to name their children numbers (Octavius, Quintus etc).

                      Well I've been known to joke about pregnancy being an STD, but that's taking it too far...

                        Same in Bali. There are four names in Balinese culture that are repeated frequently. The firstborn is "Wokalayan" (Wayan or Yan, for short), second is "Made," third is "Nyoman" or "Komang" (Man or Mang for short), and fourth is "Ketut" (often elided to Tut).
