Don’t understand it.

Odds are their parents are as bad or worse.

Interest in intellectual activity isn't universal.

It’s the culture more than the race.

Yup, children having children and their names give their race away. Using three or four letters from mom and the assumed dad and making that into a name is insane.

Used to work with a black gal and the couple had a baby girl. Her name was Shirley, his name was Robert, so they named the kid Shirrob.

I call them “Arresting Names”

[Arrowhead1952]

LOL. Never heard that expression before. On FR, they are usually referred to as Amish names.

Reading is a white thing.

A lot of times there is a crime story posted, people involved have some very “interesting” names. I started calling them “Arresting Names” which sort of has a double meaning.
