Boys and Girls (PFD, Morty, Kimmie, Spit et al)

We've done it again!

Let's stop hijacking the nice people's thread with food and alcohol related topics and toddle off back to the disco where we can have this conversation in the comfort of our own sticky sofas

Anyone else who would like to come along then please do.

Just bring a bottle of Flash with you!

I have to just say I may be absent for some time. I've just had a look at the "notwithoutmyhandbag" link (posts 98 & 107) and it's hilarious. You really cannot believe some of the names people are proposing - are any of these people even old enough to be parents?

They sound like 13 year-olds: "when I grow up I'm going to have a little girl and I'm going to call her Mekenzi Kadince Cydnee Emmuleeeey. Or maybe Kaffuryn Jewlia Patzi." "Yeah, but, no, but my sister had a little boy and she called him David but I though it should be, like, Dayvyd Dawson Pacey Brooklyn. She's sooo boring, yeah?"

Sorry, got carried away there. But check it out, it's funny in a really scary where is the world headed kind of way.

Deb smiley - cheerup

McKenzie? As a first name?!

As a Scot I'm shocked and appalled by such things!
