Me, every time I watch Inuyasha:

"USE YOUR G+#!$~N WIND TUNNEL MIROKU! F@** the plot bugs, eat Naraku, die, and know you saved the world with your sacrifice. Hell, they can use a jewel shard to bring you back. Boom. Problem solved. You idiots!!"

I get very invested in TV shows.

Using jewel shards seems to have unwanted side effects like making you a puppet of Naraku - Kohaku.

So I really wouldn't, myself. Kikiyo is also another example who came back wrong, though she got better.

Besides it would probably be a fake Naraku if it happened.

What? Guy can't fly with the wind?

Regarding names with no vowels and superfluous z's: I went to high school in a town with a large number of families of Eastern European descent. There were a wide variety of "odd" names. None of them quite as bad as Krzyzewski, but some got close. A few months ago we had a guest here with a similar name. He came to check out, told me his room number, I looked it up and said "Mr. Z?" to confirm (Z obviously wasn't his name, and I thought it more appropriate for this conversation than the more typical X). He looked at me wide eyed and said "You pronounced that better than I usually do."

Central, dammit! Geographic center of Europe is in Poland! Eastern Europe is Ukraine and Russia!

Hey, that's a perfectly valid (and simple) surname! My guess would be it was family coming from "Krzyże" (crosses)... Or the owners of such village.

Could be this one. could be another not existent anymore.

I wanna pronounce Kryze as curze.

East-Central then. There were a few Ukranians, but yes most were closer to Poland. I apologize if I offended. To be fair, I think many Americans think of Europe mainly as East/West based on the old Soviet divisions.

And I don't know the derivation of Krzyzewski. All I know is that he is a fairly well-known college basketball coach with a name that people like ot trip over.

Well Vidmaster7, these were his exact words:

Well, it's 10 PM. I'm tired and in mild pain. And I have to work Tomorrow. Mort, please bot me. Good night, everyone.

I guess I misread it as him having a headache.

But since it's math and I know Freehold LOVES him some math:
Full Birth Name: 15 letters, 5 vowels
Full Married Name: Added 5 letters, 3 vowels.
Married Name I Go By: 12 letters with 7 vowels

Any way you slice it, I live a vowel-rich life!

My full name is 22 letters. No Zs, though.

I have 11 consonants and 7 vowels.

Spoiler:
eight letters form four digraphs

There are reasons why Poland shall be one of the last places conquered by the Google's robotic armies. The moment when Google AI will be capable of handling Polish language humanity will be irrevocably doomed...

Unless Google simply uses map coordinates to lead its armies, instead of place names... Then we are all screwed anyway.

You might want to learn Polish, then. Not polish. Unless you think the machines will win because they can make things shiny.

The machines will appreciate the shiny. :P

Well, I just got the mother of all death glares.

One of my seniors told me they'd signed up for fraternity rush this fall. I asked if he could explain because it was all Greek to me.

My full name...12 letters...equally divided among all three names...4 of the letters are vowels, and it's all the same vowel.

NH - the last few days have been a bit of a whirlwind and a bit of a mess. I'm planning on taking a look at those options you sent me tonight.

You let d#!!+eads abuse you physically and psychologically in the hopes that one day "connections" will let you get a good job.

Maybe that's why I never had a good job. Because I refused to wear a coconut bra and leaf skirt and have a stranger paddle me with a cricket bat.

I can't remember or for some reason find the quote, but I love what Randy said on My Name is Earl (paraphrased):

"I like riding tricycles and I love drinking beer, but if one of you hits me with that paddle, I'm gonna whoop your ass."

"But they paddled us. We now get to paddle you or it isn't fair."

"Why us? Why don't you paddle the guys who paddled you? That would be fair."

(Frat leaders then start to get their asses beat by newer members)

I'm not counting how many letters and s#$~ are in my name. My great grandparents were Romani that started using it when they came to America anyway.

I will not even pretend to understand Romani naming conventions/traditions. It's simply outside of my cultural experience thus far.

I'm very seriously considering leaving Security. The idiots that manage my garage, from another garage across the river, insist that it's now my job to fix the gate arms after some brainless college kids pop the gates. Apparently, I'm now a mechanic, also. I hate my job. :(
Do you even have the tools to fix the gate arms? And if you werent in Security, what other field would you look into?

I do now. I bought a rubber mallet over the weekend. That idiot janitor told me to use a brick. Yeah, I'll use the brick alright, right upside *redacted*. *sigh*

I'm good with computers, both hardware and software. But everyone wants experience, and you can't get experience without doing the work. I wish I knew where to look for entry-level positions.

Actually, it was arthritic pain in the fingers. Makes it hard to type on the keyboard. That, plus pain in the elbows, and the shoulders. *sigh* Growing old sucks.
