[Opinions] You know what?
in reply to a message by Tota
I like word names. I like them a lot. But Pleasant isn't simply a nice-sounding word I found in the dictionary--it has a great deal of history.Alvin Pleasant Delaney Carter. Go look him up sometime.I'll leave the question of what my theoretical son (I'm glad you know his personality so well, btw--someone oughta, and a stranger on the internet would be my first choice) would do out of this, along with the question of "dignity and manhood" (because I go to a very liberal women's college and don't have the time for sexist crap like that, thanks--we talk it up enough in class). That's not what I have a problem with. I'm most bothered by the fact that that you think Pleasant can't be a name because it's a word. Never mind that it's a word with a history of use--you've never heard it before, and therefore, it's no good. Pull your head out your ass, please and thank you.Array (gets defensive about word names)
