Imagine if you went to France and your name was Gemma Pell [^] Not my joke, I hasten to add, but it did make me laugh.
Imagine if you went to Germany and your name was Wilma Bumsen.

This reminds me of my first few years in Canada not getting the Frenglish puns. Whoosh! There went another one over my head... (I'm better now. Osmosis is a wonderful thing)

Old urban myth: Pugwash (really really really old animated series), the hands on the ship were 'Master Bates' deckhand 'Seaman Stains' and 'Roger the cabin boy' and then there's the since adopted meanings for Pugwash[^] Kids today have nothing on the fun we had way back then, sadly some bleeding heart moron (oops) invented: 'PC.' (No not the IBM thing) Can't even be a proper grumpy old man with these *&^* newfangled rules.

Ah, for duck's sake: You made me go to Urban Dictionary, and I just HAD to check out the "Trending now" links. I wish I hadn't, because now I know what a "Dog in a bath tub" is, and I really wish I hadn't seen that! How is that even remotely possible??? X|

This made me reflect upon the other treads about Git, and in my opinion, the name of that source control system is only fitting when pronounced in French (but then again in that case VERY fitting!) :~

How about your name is Dick Monster? (two common Dutch names) And your company email is lastname.firstname@company.com. Your emails now go straight to the spam box :laugh: And yes, this actually happened. By the way, my name is Sander (very common Dutch name), which means I'm just a tool to smooth out surfaces in English :~

Osmosis? I think a better analogy would "decay is inevitable", or perhaps "things will be better in the next life", or, "I'd rather have beeen kidnapped by aliens and probed".

Sadly, the blame is more easily and correctly place of the religious right . . . those folks who brought (and still try to bring) censorship tall all they perceive as immoral. You know - the folks that see pornographic images in Disney Cartoons[^].
