"A CRUMMY WORLD OF PLOT HOLES AND SPELLING ERRORS."

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

at times like this, i can only wonder how my life would have been different if my parents named me "u.s. cellular field"

i guess some asshole named his baby girl "addison n. clark" after the location of wrigley field... though that's still not as bad as naming a baby "ESPN."

do you think it ever occurs to people that children may not appreciate being named as a tribute to a sports team?

or what it's going to be like when she has to suffer through thousands of banal conversations starting with "say! you aren't named after wrigley field, are you? your parents must be pretty big cubs fans!"

or that when the baby grows up, she may not even like baseball?

  1. it's a name that's also associated with 100 years of failure, price-gouging, and drunken assholery.
