The truth is that like it or not, children with unusual names are going to be teased and bullied by their peers at school; they could also suffer career problems in adult life if they are not taken as serious professionals because of the wacky naming choice their parents made thirty years before. Giving a child a…

Paula Yates, lovely as she was, also saddled her children with daft names. I remember the was some amusement in the UK when Fifi Trixibelle appeared on the scene. Poor Paula...now I am sad.

Prince works at one of the supermarkets in Sheffield, UK. Nice chap, does shifts on the tills.

Erm...bit late mate.

I got married when I wasn’t one hundred per cent sure it was the right thing to do. I got married to please other people. I got married because of all the money that had already been spent on the wedding. I got married, after sitting in my wedding dress before the ceremony, thinking “This is a really bad idea”.

I think you are a nasty person and I hope nasty things happen to you.

May the unpleasantness that you exude be returned to you threefold.

Apologies for this large ugly image...I know not how to make it smaller.

Seems to be an issue across Kinja generally...I find I am spending less and less time here.

I humbly apply to join your chorus :)

It’s bullshit and they know it.

The UN has limited human resources, and a very limited budget. This is a waste of both when there are planet-wide environmental calamities to be dealt with.

Yup. It is incredibly stupid for the UN to be even considering this fluff when the planet is being made less habitable on a daily basis. Larsen C is about to drop, the ocean and tundra are pumping methane, yet there are people here getting all hot and bothered by a couple of dresses that look vaguely the same.

Speaking from Yorkshire...”Challenge accepted” :)

Our rage sustains us.

We will indeed be turning out in force if he shows his face here. Every street his car drives down will be lined with bare-arse and/or middle-finger salutes, and signs with words he can’t understand, but will realise aren’t compliments. Theresa May sacked off all our police years ago while she was Home Secretary, so…

Rather fond of the Faith No More cover myself.

Have to agree; once someone has cheated on you and got away with it (as in, you didn’t end the relationship immediately) they will feel they have carte blanche to do it again. Get out of the relationship, take some time to reassess your life, and then get on with it under your own steam. It’s hard, I’ve done it, but…

And worse...worse than all of these things combined is...the terrible people who move in next door. From a variety of delightful neighbours I have had in the past I have experienced:

How about Gillian Bradshaw’s Down The Long Wind trilogy? I read these when they came out (early eighties) but I think they might be a bit obscure now. There’s also Firelord and Beloved Exile by Parke Godwin, and The Road to Avalon by Joan Wolf, not Merlin heavy particularly, but interesting takes on the Arthurian…
