[Games] Re: You Say, You Think [Boys]
in reply to a message by Dot
This is my son, Theodore Paul. We call him Teddy.
You say: Oh, how handsome!
You think: Yeah, Theodore Paul's great. I don't dig Teddy though.
This is my son, Oliver Zalman.
You say: Oh, that's interesting. Is Zalman family?
You think: That's pretty cool. Oliver's kind of trendy, but Zalman rocks.
This is my son, Gideon Felix.
You say: AHA OMG OMG OMG THAT IS ONE OF MY COMBOS
You think: One of my old combos BUT OMG WTF THIS IS SO WEIRD! It's like seeing your own kid somewhere. Ahhaahgssd. Anyway now I don't have to use it. Great taste, Mom! /walks away weirded out
This is my son, Arthur Frederick.
You say: Oh, how very handsome and regal and English!
You think: love.
This is my son, Ernest Owen. We call him Ernie.
You say: Oh, that's handsome.
You think: ...kind of. Ernie is so geeky and Owen's very trendy, but pleasant.
This is my son, Percy Edwin.
You say: Percy Edwin! I love you Percy Edwin.
You think: Actually I would probably think that. Have I responded to a Percy Edwin recently? The combo is quite familiar.
This is my son, Basil Gideon.
You say: Oh, that's wonderful.
You think: That is so great. I love Basil and Gideon. The combo is kind of mismatched though. But still, love both names.
This is my son, John Francis.
You say: Oh how wonderful and delightful and amazing!
You think: What I said. Except his name is John. Oh, how I love Francis! But he'll still be John, which is handsomed-up by Francis but in everyday application is boring and impractical. But John Francis...that's so good.
This is my son, George Edward.
You say: How handsome and regal and English etc etc!
You think: It is regal and English, and it's pretty handsome. Except I don't like George that much.
This is my son, Raphael John.
You say: That's a name you don't hear every day.
You think: Hm. I'm only opposed to Raphael on principle - and by "principle," I mean my friend Janine said LMAO NO when she saw someone else's child named it. It's the same reason I don't like U2, the name Reuben, or the name Vincent. But it is very angelic and such, and so I approve. John's handsome and whatnot, but it's super boring as a middle name - or a first name, for that matter.
eta: I hope you have like a million sons.
