The Tale of the Overzealous PC Apologist: Chapter 1
Sometimes when people post their favorite names on here, we may think that they have the most ridiculous taste in the world. But there are so many people, in different cultures and places, and so their version of a beautiful name might be slightly different then ours. Get over it, and name your children what you love. Some people come on here for advice, and providing your opinion is different than knocking their choices…. Just don’t hate on others!

So it’s OK to provide your opinion as long as you don’t actually criticize their choice, even though most of them aren’t so much making choices as…asking for opinions. And the vast majority of the names have no tie whatsoever to any sort of identifiable ethnicity besides Would-Be Yuppie on Too Much Xanax. Um, yeah.

The vast majority of negative emails I get include the phrase “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.”

Which I would argue with, except when people ASK for opinions, they are ASKING for disagreement. And when I give it to them, they get all pissy and say, “Well its MY baby!” and so they can go screw.

Don’t worry, I don’t hate on others. Their kids will do it for me.
