But to make it up to you, if you need a hit on the fry cook (or sarah) you call me.

Haha no dude it's absolutely hilarious. It wasn't when it happened around 4 years ago, but it's completely hilarious now. Time is an effective anti-drama.

Stuff like that, when it happens, I'm sure you know it sucks (although I can't speak to your experience with being passed up for a semi-retarded fry cook)... but after a while, you realize it's probably the best thing that could have happened.

Especially in my situation when I realized how lucky I was that I didn't marry a girl who cheats on people with semi-retarded fry cooks. Score!
I guess I should be thanking the Ambers, Laqueefahs, and Sarahs of the world.

My first observation: that poll is actually kinda wacky and interesting.

My second observation: for those of you who have read Freakonomics, you'll recall that names tend to work in cycles so there certainly could be a relationship between income level and name, and thus possibly income level plays a factor in "sluttiness"...

Aw, I know heaps of lovely Sarahs who aren't sluts.

Honestly, it's all in the statistical interpretation. As long as you think critically, it becomes obvious why certain correlations might exist. Bloody journalists...

I have noticed, however, that every single person I've met called Joy has been a grouchy irascible cow. Nurse Joy and anyone here named Joy excluded of course

I don't feel know so much about american/english names and sluttyness, but if I ever meet a woman named Ilsa, I'm gonna assume she's a complete tortorous nazi slut.

I know for a fact that "Isla"s (different placement of S) are nice people though.

What if he turns out to be a rapist?

I don't actually think a name can actually affect behaviour. That just seems silly. I think parenting, enviroment, economics and lifestyle effects behaviour. An "Walter' growing up in a poverty state is more likely to get in trouble with the law than a "Walter" growing up with an average lifestyle. And even then it's all chances because I do think that there are just good people, bad people, and those who are figuring themselves out still.

I have noticed, however, that girls with "V" names tend to be pretty snotty - Vanessa, Veronica, etc.

I agree. Also, none of these names have that 'stripper' feel to it.
