Bold Rover Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 10 hours ago, DiegoDiego said: That doesn't sound likely to me. There wasn't much furore about 18th century slave owners in the 1990s to my recollection, certainly not enough for folk to deviate from convention when it came to naming the fruit of their own loins. Surely it was more an anti-patriarchal move? Anyway, it's a bit nonsense as what do you name a child born to two parents with double-barrelled surnames? [insert witty answer here.] The Spanish have a convention to address this matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A96 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Most of the new pundits on Sky Soccer Saturday or Soccer Special are just not very good at their job. However the one that I dislike the most (apart from Clinton Morrison, who , I assume , is universally regarded as an annoying p***k) is Michael Dawson for his sweetie-wifey voice and his hand gestures and the way he shifts in his seat when he’s describing some incident that’s just happened in the game he’s covering. Although , to be fair (as Clinton Morrison says ad nauseum) none of them are quite at Micah Richards levels of uselessness as a pundit and canna-stand-him-ness as a personality 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Zoe Ball, Lenny Henry, Stephen Mulhern. Stephen Mulhern comes across as one of those "don't you know who I am?" types. Over the top with the trying to be nice approach on tele just screams 'total dick off camera', to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Russia also.? They have a patronymic, so your middle name is your father's christian name +ich. So Vladimir Ilyich Lenin's father was Ilya Lenin. The Spanish have a convention to address this matter.As does Portuguese but they chuck it out the window and just start calling folk Douglas or Aristotle or Walmart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Not sure if I posted this already, but Sage thought that this image would encourage people to use their payroll software. I guess they couldn't get a picture of her on the crapper, or picking her nose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
