@jimm619 saidSocial media has turned the world into a really small town, complete with nodding neighbours with wagging fingers and tongues. Its not just that big brother is watching you, but Mrs Brown, that sweet little old lady that makes cakes for the church fete, also knows all your business.
Too much Tucker Carlson.

It’s rather obvious to all who frequent this forum that there is something bad in the American gene pool. Maybe not chlorine.
Is moronity a thing? I’m sure it has to be.

-Removed-It's a perfectly good surname. Beats me why Americans use surnames (or titles!) as first names. But there you have it: Harrison, Parker, Cooper, Blair (yech), Jackson... Duke...
And what is it with nobodies calling themselves "The Third"? Are they that insecure in their own identity that they have to remind people that they had a father and grandfather, neither of whom had much creativity in naming their children? I can never resist calling them "Jebson P. Hobblewacker, ill". (Oh, and funnily, you never see a "fourth" or "fifth". Always only "ill". Maybe they can't spell "iv".)
@Shallow-Blue
Agreed.
My girlfriend has a 22 year old loser son who still lives with mom and he does nothing but sleep all day and play video games all night.
He said he is going to name his future son after himself. I laughed in his face and told him you have to be a somebody to pass the name down or you just look ridiculous.

I blame the yuppies, who were the first to get rich off Reagan's policies and then refuse to let the wealth "trickle down". They're the ones who name their kids (the preppies, who ended up at Harvard and Yale, you know, "Biff" and "Muffy" ) those ridiculous names because they all think their kid is "special".
