Haha oh my god. Bramble? :D:

I know a fair share of idiotic names, I know a girl named Heavenly, Destiny, Chastity, Charity and another named Gevaria (It sounds more like a name of a country then a person). Then we all know Gwyneth Paltrow's legendary name making skills, she called her kid Apple? Do these parents even think about how badly their children would be made fun of in school with such humiliating names? Well, I guess not, I guess that would require a smart parent which is very rare these days. :twisted:

I was hosting Turtle Talk at the Living Seas, and Crush wanted to talk to a girl in a yellow shirt, so I go to this one kid, and they go "I'm a boy." Ew. So, I knew it was the wrong kid, so I found the right one.

Later, the boy had a question, but Crush called him a 'dudette.' So, he told Crush, "I'm a boy." The audience cracked up.

My friend Carrie at Seas was often called a Sir from behind because she had short hair.

People used to mistake my little brother for a girl all the time, which was weird because he didn't look girly at all. My dad told him that the next time someone called him a girl, he should drop his pants and yell, "DO I LOOK LIKE A GIRL TO YOU?!" :D: :D:

Okay, I understand the sentiment, but that's just bad advice! :barf:

I was watching a parade once and mentioned to the woman next to me that I once had long curly hair just like her daughter. She replied that he was her nephew :o: She then said it happens all the time and she told her brother to cut the kid's hair. He was about 4 or 5. For 8 years my driver's license said I was a male! I'm not! I'm not! I'm not! :elephant1 (temper tantrum) This was before ATM cards (does anyone remember that far back?) and I wrote a lot of checks. It was amazing how many store clerks noticed it. I would reply that sex change operations have definitely improved. ;)

when i was in high school, i learned to never ask a woman when she was due...especially, if she were a he.
a woman with long curly hair and a very pregnant looking belly in a mini van pulled up to my window. i told her what a blessing babies were and when was hers due. just then, the passenger leaned over and yelled " can't you see he's a man???!!! well, no, i couldn't...sorry he had his pants on, which is more than i could say for the guy earlier....
