The father of a 3 year old named Adolph Hitler was denied a birthday cake with his son’s name on by ShopRite then him and his wife babble about tolerance about tolerance and Obama. Their other children are named JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler. Who the fuck names their son after a genocidal tyrant and has the nerve to act “surprised by all the controversy the dispute had generated”? :dubious: Those poor children.
The best part was the dad complaining that everyone else should get their heads out of the clouds and look to the future and not the past.
He names his kid Adolph Hitler, and the REST OF US are living in the past? Whatever.
What we have here is simply an attetion whore. They could have put the name on themselves.
If they have another kid (and I’m not sayin’ that they should), they really ought to name it “Too Soon”.
Adolf’s parents are even dumber than you’d think:
Because we all know all the warm feelings Hitler had for the disabled.
Little Hitler… such a scamp!
Honszlynn?!? What the fuck kind of a name is Honszlynn, anyway? :dubious:
(I mean, yeah, I know, I know; I’m just sayin’, is all.)
Doesn’t seem like a racist douchebag. Which means he’s one of those fucking idiots who draws a backwards swastika on something or themselves and then goes around saying “No no, it’s a Buddhist sun-wheel representing peace and holiness. The Nazi swastika goes the other way”.
And I don’t get the Honszlynn Hinler bit… did I miss a page in social studies?
Somehow, Honszlynn Hinler is supposed to be named for Heinrich Himmler, but unless the several news stories I’ve seen on the issue all spelled her middle name wrong, the brilliant parents couldn’t even Himmler right.
She’s lucky. She came that close to being named Herman Goering Campbell.
Himmler? I barely know her.
Does what y’all have written exclude/excuse Frank Zappa’s naming his kids Moon Unit and Dweezil?
Not being argumentative at all, just wondering if there’s a distinction between the two other than the obvious one?
Thanks
Q
Why on Earth would you need more than the obvious one unless you were being argumentative?
This reminds me of a story I read a few years ago about a man, in the Midwest I think it was, whose surname really was Hitler. He refused to change it. All of his children had, but he stood firm. Said it was the family name and he was proud of it. The children, all adults now, were also interviewed and recounted a childhood full of torment at the hands of others.
The “obvious one” being racist douchebaggery is not exactly a meaningless distinction.
You’re missing the point, sorry, I should have been clearer.
Moon Unit and Dweezil are not based on historical characters, is what I meant.
Just wondered if naming those two those names could be excused while naming a kid Adolf, cannot.
Q
correcting myself yet again: It’s Adolf not Adolph.
Q
Reminds me of the idiot parents who named their daughter
Talula does the hula from Hawaii. Poor kids.
Are you being purposely obtuse?
Naming a kid Dweezil or Moon Unit = Harmless Wacky
Naming a kid Thomas Jefferson = Okay
Naming a kid Adolph Hitler = Not Okay
Ah, yes, well do I remember the horrors of the Second Space War: the relentless Lunarian bombardment of Terran cities; the implacable advance of the merciless Cybertronic Death Brigades; the nightmarish sight of friends and loved ones dissolving into gray goo after being infected by the nanites–all in the service of the mad ambitions of that deranged madman, Dweezil, with his oh-so-faux-modest title “Lunarian Citizen 0001” (or, as he was soon universally nicknamed, “Moon Unit”).
