[Opinions] Re: Martha
in reply to a message by Perrine
Well, Martha is at least better than Bertha or Erna, but that's really not saying much.
I like very few names with the th sound, and Martha is one of the ugliest ones. It's just frumpy and I picture a big, loud, frumpy woman stubbing out her cigarettes in her not-quite-empty coffee cup and hanging on the phone all day spreading rumors.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
