Help[Opinions] Tarantulas
Two of my very best friends who are brothers are really good friends with this guy whose name is
Tarantulas
Not Tarantula, but
Tarantulas
I dunno why I haven't posted about it before, maybe it just makes me shake my head too much to post, but my friend just told me he's getting an apartment with Tarantulas. And what he said was literally, "tarantulas and i are getting an apartment." He literally said that sentence.

That would cause some people to change their name when they reached legal age.

Badass. "I'm getting an apartment with Tarantulas!" would have been the better sentence imo.
But yeah, his parents must be either super cool or really whack.

I thought this was going to be a thread about naming tarantulas, and then I wondered if maybe it's a foreign name. After reading that he's American and that his name is pronounced like the word, all I can say is that Tarantulas is very odd. Even if it happens to just be a nickname, it's still really peculiar, especially since it's in plural form rather than just Tarantula.

I seriously hope that's just a nickname!! Poor kid..

At first I thought you were going to ask us to help you name your tarantulas - but this is way funnier! It reminds me of Will Smith's friend Cockroach on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!

When I first saw the subject line, I thought "what do tarantulas have to do with the name board"? Then I thought, "well, maybe it's some rare name, and is supposed to be pronounced all fancy, like Ta-RAN-too-lus". Then I actually read the message, and was back to "Tarantulas?!? WTF?!?". :/

Spiderman, eh? Perhaps he could change it to Peter?

Actually, daft as it is, it's got a great sound as a name. TarrrrANchoolas!
And there are a couple of them on facebook that are making me think it might have someother etymology as a name. But someone else will have to find it, because my nerdiness just totally got whupped by my arachnophobia.

Hmmm. What is his nationality, and how does he pronounce his name? Around here we say "tuh-RANCH-oo-luh" for the spider, but it might be pronounced differently elsewhere.

He's totally american and it's said exactly like that with an S at the end.
