Unfortunately named authors...
It is unfortunate when you meet or hear of someone with a humorous name..and you try your hardest not to smile and giggle. My father went to Korea for business and told me he nearly lost it when he was introduced to "Cum Suk Dong". There was a kid in my high school named "Chris Fagit". Another tragedy.
So I thought I'd look up some crazy authors on Amazon. Heres what I have found..
Every Last Cent (A Lovejoy Novel) by Jonathan Gash
Suleyman the Magnificent and His Age: Ottoman Empire in the Early Modern World by Metin Kunt (Editor), Christine Woodhead (Editor)
Arabische Kultur und Islam im Mittelalter: Ausgewählte Schriften by Johann Fück

As you can see, some pretty..unfortunate..names there. All of them can be found on Amazon. So if you are a boy named Dana, or really hate you last name of Snaggletooth..etc. you could be in a far worse situation.
PS - Sorry for adding Word Verification, but I've been a tactical target as of late..cuz normally I dont have 15 comments per entry, cuz no one loves me..ahem..so..uh..instead of false love, word verification is in full effect yo! ;)
12 Comments:
i junked it. i realized i hate having forced videos more than posting one for a tune i really like. you might be the only person who caught it..it was posted for only a couple hours.
You have too much time on your hands!! :)
lmao. id have to shoot myself if i had some of those names. lol
thanks for coming to visit me!! i like your blog i will be back
Hey Josh. Unfortunate names indeed... but totally funny for the rest of us. I wonder how much stick they get.. especially the one with vagina for a surname.. that's unbelievable!
There's been so much comment spamm recently... total pain in the arse.. it seems to be triggered by certain keywords, I think.. maybe. Ok I don't really know.. just a guess. Word verification is a great idea! How do you put it in?
How funny! I was cracking up at the one with your dad in Korea! hehe I went to high school with a girl names Anita Peters. Every kid in school wanted to call her name over the PA.
Ben went to school with a girl named Nicole Kuntmore. I would die.
Those are some interesting names...oh and by the way I didn't delete your comment...you posted it under the wrong entry ("makes my mouth water instead of "100 things") I would never delete a comment from you :)
I was laughing so hard! Its incredible you have this talent to find these things its brilliant...how in the world?
heh
i like Twatt!!! That one is great.
thanks for visiting my blog. i hear portland is an awesome little oasis, politically speaking.
I knew a girl with the last name Hyman. it was really unfortunate for her.
HAAHA! We do that at work all day. With all the warrants with crazy names that fly by!
This was great. You rock.
Have you heard of 'The Little Friend', by Donna Tartt? that one's not bad either.
