| elky | hggdh, valorie: i was unable to sign up for hotmail and yahoo mail about a decade ago because of what my surname says when you remove the first and last letters | 00:30 |
|---|---|---|
| elky | ok, more than a decade | 00:30 |
| elky | more like 15 years | 00:30 |
| Unit193 | Oh geez. | 00:31 |
| elky | ikr! | 00:31 |
| Flannel | Those decades get big quick | 00:31 |
| elky | quite | 00:31 |
| elky | i mean i did sign up and all, but it wasn't legit per their TOS | 00:32 |
| hggdh | sigh. I have seen much worse names | 00:36 |
| hggdh | and, frankly, a name is a name | 00:36 |
| hggdh | for example, my son had a friend in high school called Hang Lo | 00:42 |
| bazhang | thankfully not past tense | 00:43 |
| wxl | no, hang is present tense | 00:43 |
| bazhang | gee really | 00:44 |
| wxl | :() | 00:44 |
| hggdh | there was a friend of mine (we worked together for some years) called Dar Busa. It hapens that "Dar" means, in Portuguese, "to give"; Busa as pronounced in US, has a hard S. Which happens, in Portuguese, to mean vagina (low level) | 00:47 |
| hggdh | and I found another one, at the same company... his last name was Karalius. This happens to sound, again in Portuguese, as penis, plural. | 00:48 |
| elky | hggdh: yeah it's fairly mild | 00:49 |
| elky | i've encountered some interesting thai names in systems before | 00:49 |
| elky | pornphan for example | 00:49 |
| hggdh | so I wanted to get both in Portugal and Brazil, in a conference, so that I could announce them: "so, now with you, Karalius and Dar Busa!" | 00:49 |
| wxl | and there's always phuket | 00:50 |
| hggdh | I as forbidden to do so... pity | 00:50 |
| hggdh | s/as/s&/ | 00:50 |
| hggdh | ugh. was/ | 00:50 |
| hggdh | anyway, I want to believe Karalius first name was Dick, but I am most certainly wrong | 00:51 |
| elky | i went to uni with a young lady who's father was actually named richard head | 00:52 |
| elky | whose* | 00:53 |
| hggdh | there you go... | 00:53 |
| hggdh | just today I emailed a viet-american called Phuc | 00:54 |
| bazhang | I get yelled for chatting in here, perhaps we could go to the other channel | 00:55 |
| bazhang | plus at | 00:55 |
| hggdh | bazhang: you are absolutely right | 00:56 |
| hggdh | I apologise | 00:56 |
| hggdh | hum. | 03:18 |
| hggdh | -- | You have been invited to #fpvmfzi by xsceqqlb | 03:18 |
| valorie | intriguing | 03:18 |
| hggdh | but I like my ignorance | 03:19 |
| valorie | yes, I think it's possible I would decline such an offer | 03:19 |
| elky | the oftc spambots have been doing that, was bound to happen here eventually | 04:08 |
