No, you don't.

Belee dat. She's (obviously) religious, so I'm not sure where the name comes from..

I knew a Chastity as well and her mom wore Disney character t-shirts with sweatpants quite often.

You'll find a contingent of WT that like to go with the affirmative, optimistic word names.

Hope, Chastity, Faith, Destiny.

Naming your daughter "Destiny" pretty much guarantees that a pole is going to play a prominent role in her work career.

I think #9 from Urban Dictionary nailed it...


9. Chasity
a name poor, stupid people give to their children; likely a misspelling and mispronunciation of "chastity."
Yo, you see dat Chasity ho? She got a fine ass!

Chasity's mom must be so fucking stupid, she misspelled her kid's name.

It takes a special kind of person to scroll down to the 9th option on UD

My friends are considering naming their son what is essentially a "gimmick" name

How can I prevent them from doing this, in a kind manner

(also, ebola)

Come up with a list of high school insults that could easily be applied to said name and list them off for the parents to be. That should deter them.

What's the name and what's their reason for naming the kid it?

 

[bob2the2nd]

+ Tabatha, Lauren, Becky, Amber.

not sure about the cleveland area but girls named becky and lauren are by far and away the biggest prunes i know. in fact i would put lauren as the top of the list of most conservative by name.

Honestly i don't remember but I recall that the middle name was quite literally a non-name intended to make the full name a funny saying

 

[The Human Q-Tip]

Do they have the legal authority to quarantine health care workers the same way they would a US Soldier?

Well, a federal law expressly says the states have the right to do that, although it's really not necessary for the feds to pass a law for the states to have that right anyway. Of course, people can challenge the quarantine as being unconstitutional if they choose.

But if that's the reason, fine. Then let the President come out and say it is unconstitutional for the government to quarantine people. But again, that doesn't seem to be the actual reason. They're saying that there is no need to quarantine those health care workers in the first place, not that they don't have the right to do it.

Which again begs the question of why there isn't a need to quarantine health care workers, when there are hundreds of documented cases of health care workers being infected, while there is a need to quarantine troops who supposedly haven't even been in contact with anyone who is infected.

Why not just skip the middleman and insult the parents directly? They're the ones who really deserve it anyway.

For example: "just because you two were losers in high school doesn't mean your kid has to be."

Parents who name their kid Emery piss me off, also.

Basically it just sounds like the Team America depiction of Kim Jong Il is mispronouncing Emily.

 

[Kouki]

This is going to sound lame, but you know how stuff gets popular on the internet and by the time it gets popular in real life, its kind of old and played out to those who have seen it on the internet for years?

This is kind of how I feel about them, at least in regards to this name issue. Seems like starting a couple years ago it was all the rage to name your kids something unique because everyone is a special butterfly. Now everyone on the internet makes fun of them.

 

[The Oi]

Aiden, Caden, Brayden and Colton are the common, trendy names I hate the most right now.

All weak, yuppie pussy names.
