Jan 242014
From the birth announcements section of “The Elkhart Truth,” for January 5-17, 2014, from Elkhart, Indiana, you get newborns with names like Olivia Marie, Sophia Marie Milianta and Ethan James Simpson… and then they ratchet it up a few notches to Ta’zeek Raychon Daking and then… this: La’Soulja Major La’Pimp Burks.
Now, lil’ La’Soulja Major La’Pimp might well grow up to be a perfectly fine feller. But unless he changes his name… who the hell is going to hire him? What sort of future can he look forward to? Not only due to the reactions of strangers, but what sort of family life can he be expected to grow up in if *that* is the name he’s given?
As the very first comment on Fark points out:
I’ll assume the maternity ward staff just went ahead and sent a copy of the files to CPS for future reference.
