I'm on the front page of h2g2 today, for the first time, to my knowledge, as quote of the day, for this posting F19585?thread=4346783 and specifically the line "What would the kids in YOUR primary school have called you if your name was Shiloh Pitt?"
I've had another quote nominated too - as part of a convo about the environmental consequences of learning to fly a helicopter and reasons for doing so, I observed "I can't think of anything worse for the environment than getting to a restaurant by helicopter, unless you drop some napalm on a rainforest on the way there and harpoon some whales on the way back."
Funny mood, I guess. At least I'm typing with both hands again (and no, this is not a euphemism, I mean my broken hand is at least a bit better...)

You were also the quote of my office. I had to share that.

It also gave me a giggle while cleaning my Mum's PC, then I had to explain to Mum what was so amusing...then I had to explain who Shiloh Pitt was ... then who Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were
s'all your fault, SoRB

You mean they actually called their child that? You didn't just make it up

I know. Like I said in the post, I didn't believe it either.

Oh well, perhaps they'll think up a nice surname for her as well.

I think she's officially Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

Come on, don't ruin a perfectly good gag by intruding here with mere reality...

It's not ruined... She'll just be called a Jolly Shiloh Pitt.

Well I seem to be the only one who knew they named her Shiloh, but I never realised what she'd be called by her darling peers at school.
That's some pressure for a kid anyway, being the offspring of two of the most beautiful people on the planet, what if she's not drop-dead-gorgeous?
