Thank the Penny-Arcade Forums for this one. They have too many trolls/idiots/flamers over there for my tastes, but I occasionally pickup gems like this one from them.

The less I post, the fewer chances I have to look like an ass.
I used to work with a Mike Hunt - he preferred to be called Mick :-)

Courteney Cox was once on Letterman, and Dave asked her father's name. "Richard," she answered. Dave picked up on it and started to chuckle, and then the studio audience started to slowly catch on as well. Courteney, however, didn't pick up on it.
"When this bogus term alternative rock was being thrown at every '70s retro rehash folk group, we were challenging people to new sonic ideas. If some little snotty anarchist with an Apple Mac and an attitude thinks he invented dance music and the big rock group is coming into his territory, [that's] ridiculous." - Bono, 1997

Some people are stupid. Some people are really stupid. There's a whole level of uber-stu[id for people who don't get Dick Cox. That said, my dad worked for a German guy named Jack Meihof. (My-hof)
Sometimes I ask myself why I watch WWE after all the crap it's given me. HLA, necro, HHH, and so on. And then it hits me. That one simple phrase that can be modified and used for anything that gets you down, yet makes you keep coming back.
Every episode has the potential to be the best one ever, and I'll be damned if I'm going to miss it after sitting through this shit.

There used to be a British childrens show called, I think "Captain Pugwash" In it were characters called Master Bates, Seaman Stains and Roger the Cabin Boy. It was around for a few years before the censors worked it out and banned it!

One of my best friend's last names is Dover. I am begging him to name his first born son Ben.

At a research seminar I went to, the presentor in his acknowledgements had a grad student name Kok Long. I have a friend whos boss was named Candice Barr (though that isn't as dirty as some of these other ones).
Mr. Burns: You are of course familiar with our state usury laws? Homer:U-sur-y? Mr. Burns: Oh silly me, I must have just used a word that doesn't exist.
I have a friend whose Vietamese name is Phuc Du Long. When he got to the States and enrolled in school, the first thing the counselor did was give him an American name. Also, a secretary where I work said that she used to work for a stock broker who had a client named Beaker Seaman.
Politics seems to be the only place where you can find a lot of people named 'Dick' nowadays (Cheney, Gephardt, and the immortal Dick Armey).

I was watching a golf tournament a few years back that was being commentated on by the great English broadcaster Peter Alliss. The group was Pat Bates and (I think) Robert Allenby, and both men hit nice long drives. Alliss then goes "And a pair of excellent drives for Master Allenby and Master..." and then he cut himself off as he realized that he was about to say. There was a long silence afterwards, which meant either Alliss was being reamed out or the other announcers were laughing so hard they couldn't continue.
