    Okay, this is not a complaint but this thread reminded me of it and had to share:

    There was a mother that named her baby, "Dinasty" pronounced like the word, "Dynasty" but the reason she named her kid that was "because we was doin da nasty when we made her" cracks me up every time!!

    God, do people not think of their kids and how people will be to them when they grow up? How mean will kids be in school with a kid called Toiletta? Or how seriously will prospective employers take someone with that name...ugh...

    I'm a victim of the "text generation". Last week at work I saw a chief of "brb vomit" and all I could think of was "be right back vomit"! Which kind of made sense in it's own weird way!
