And so, due to rising costs of maintaining the Golden Throne, the Emperor's finest accountants spoke to the Demigurg. A deal was forged in blood and extensive paperwork for a sub-prime mortgage with a 5/1 ARM on the Imperial Palace. And lo, in the following years the housing market did tumble and the rate skyrocketed leaving the Emperor's coffers bare. A dark time has begun for the Imperium, the tithes can not keep up with the balloon payments and the Imperial Palace and its contents, including the Golden Throne, have fallen into foreclosure. With an impending auction on the horizon mankind holds its breath as it waits to see who will gain possession of the corpse-god and thus, the fate of humanity...... |

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse. They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is, but they’ll never know this. Not until it’s too late.

I used to do volunteer work at a hospital a long time ago, and they mainly had me working in the "Mother/Baby Unit", where the majority of the post-birth care was provided (excluding patients that needed to go to the ICU or NICU).
The following are 100% real names that I've dealt with. The better ones are from people who did not understand English.
Twins Orangelo and Lemangelo (don't remember the last name). Pronounced Or-ahn-jell-oh and Luh-mahn-jell-oh.
X-Ray Draiton. The parents just couldn't get over the word X-Ray. They thought it was awesome.
Vagina (yes, vagina, don't remember the last name). Pronounced Fuh-gee-nuh.
Placenta (don't remember the last name). Pronounced exactly the same way as the body part. The mother didn't know one word of English, and the translator didn't bother telling her what it meant.
We also had a Le-a.
And since we're doing taxi drivers...

Half of those break the forum rules, but they're still hilarious if they're true. I feel sorry for the generation of kids who have to put up with their mum's favourite high street shop as a name, or their dad's favourite tracksuit brand. I don't want my daughter, Luna Aurelia Elysia, to be in the same class as Primark, T.K.Max, Nike, Adidas, Eclipse (the nightclub (s)he was conceived in), Vindaloo, et cetera.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

A friend of mine's last name is 'Hiscock'. He's an unreal guy, and a Newf to boot, so wherever he goes, we all chant 'Whose cock?' to which he answers with his name. Awesome dude.
