I worked on a large system once which had a minimum length of three letters for customer surnames. Which was fine until you still having to deal with Mr. Ng.

And another really old customer service system which did mail-merges to send letters out to all customers, unless the first customer in the file had the initials "GH" which for some reason it treated as a file-identifying magic character string (like "#!" in shell scripts) and wouldn't load it because it didn't think it was a customer name file.

Lol, Ng is my last name and I do occasionally get issues like that, mostly in the UK.

The real fun is watching people try to pronounce it.

There is a professor at George Washington University that got caught in a Rachel Dolezal/Elizabeth Warren situation today. She's white but has been pretending to be black. She tried to pre-empt getting outed by posting a non-apology to Medium.

But the REALLY funny thing is someone posted a clip of her on a Zoom call that shows how poorly she faked her accent.

How the gently caress do you read the Bible and come away with that loving filth, I want to ask, but i know the answer is literally "none of them read the Bible, they get told by a preacher what to believe and HE'S basing that on what makes him money"

Well don't you know I'm caught in a trap?

It's bizarre too, because if there was ONE overarching point to Jesus' message in the bible it's "gently caress rich people" so much so money lending was outlawed in Catholic Europe.

Because they're Montanists — something actually declared heretical in 230CE, well before the Council of Nicea, but that the theologians among these arseholes keep digging up and thinking "hey, these dudes were p cool, we're their modern inheritors!" — who've developed that particular line of bullshit further into a kind of Manichaean witchcraft.

I believe the "full inch" of waist growth is actually because he has pumped her full of spunk rather than anything to do with her eggs. Happy to help.
