The baby link, that's a joke, right? It has to be a joke. That's just so wrong.
The worst song in the world is Picture. Followed closely by Midnight at the Oasis. But I will agree that My Humps sounds completely horrible. Fortunately I have never seen the video or heard the song.
I love the warning label generator, especially the one that you made. That is so damn classic.
DM, I think you need to click on that My Humps link and find out for sure. I know I haven't done it justice.
I had to turn off the "My Humps" video for my own protection.
You know the worst thing about that baby's name? It's not that the parents named her after Brad Pitt's women. It's that they added another N, making Aniston into Anniston. The poor child will not only be mocked forevermore, she'll also have to correct the spelling of her name Every Single Time.
Oh man! I hope that link to the baby is fake, because yet again I'm impressed by how stupid people are! Why would you want to remind your child and those around them of pop culture infidelity by stamping them with a name like that? Why!?!
As far as the "My Humps" song, I like it, but in a secret ashamed way, even if it is an ear worm. I guess I find that it redeems the song a little when she says that she's just trying to dance and not touch her.
I have the inappropriate-for-public-singing problem with pretty much everything from Avenue Q. The songs are all so damn catchy. But if you go around singing, "I'M HAPPY... JUST BEING WITH YOU... SO WHY SHOULD IT MATTER WHAT YOU DO IN BED WITH GUYS?" Well... you're gonna get some funny looks.
Grr. Is there something wrong with me that I followed the blond joke link as far as it would go, despite having already got the joke? It lead to a broken link.
Is it bad that I KNOW that baby link IS NOT A JOKE?
Because it's not.
My mother works at Growing Family, the lovely people bringing you this baby's picture.
When I was in high school, I worked there too, adding the babies' names onto their wallet-size pictures. The worst I ever saw was a little boy named: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (to be called "Chip"). The second worst, twin girls: Virginia and Vagina.
We actually call these parents to make sure this is really what they meant. As in, "Hello Ma'am, we're from Growing Family and we're processing your photo order. Can you spell your son's name for me?"
And they answer, and they always answered in the affirmative, "Oh, of course. It's C-H-O-C-O-L-A..."
In this case, this parent was called and began, "A-N-N-I-S-T.."
It should be illegal to name your children names like that, my god.
Andrew, I did the same thing.
Orange, I made the same, scarily anal observation! What is WRONG with people?
Flea, I had avoided "My Humps" until now. Oh, holy mother of G-d, what have we done to our world?
My mom sings that song. I'm not even kidding.
I'm sorry, but any song with that refers to breasts as "lovely lady lumps" is a-ok in my book.
Actually, it's not. But I love it anyway because I simply can't seem to pull myself away from the song. I'm glad there are others out there with a similar affliction.
Shit, BK beat me to the LOVELY LADY LUMPS reference. That's the one that floats around our house all the time, often addressed to the dog. "Gorm? Whatcha gonna do? MAH HUMPS, MAH HUMPS, MAH LOVELY LADY LUMPS!" And then the dog goes and dumps over the trash because he's all love drunk on my humps. HE DUMPS, HE DUMPS.
I'm telling you, no one is safe from that song. It takes everybody down with it.
I'm in agreement with one of the commentors on the baby's picture...'An(n)iston' and 'Jolie' could both be ok names on their own, but that's assuming the parents wait long enough to use them that the general public doesn't remember either Angelina or Jennifer and make the connection. Remember Michael Baldwin in Office Space...?
JT, Scarily Anal would be a great name for band, wouldn't it? Who wouldn't want to go to a Scarily Anal concert and buy a Scarily Anal t-shirt? Who?!? Nobody, that's who.
I still can't get over the fact that the singer of this song was once cute little Stacy Ferguson on Kids Incorporated.
Congrats on your BOB nomination!
even worse than "my humps" which is the most appalling song I've heard in a good long while, was the xmas version that featured camels. although that one made more sense than the original, to be honest.
Flea, I'm blaming this morning's nightmare on you. After a completely sleepless night with Benjamin, I drifted off for maybe 45 minutes and had a nightmare with Fergie bleating "MY HUMPS, MY HUMPS...."
Yes, I did wake in a cold sweat.
Oh my god, Lazy Sunday is hysterical! I stopped watching SNL long ago, but maybe I'll start again, after seeing that.
Hmmmm ... can't get to the baby link. It seems to be password protected now.
I suppose they got tired of people making fun of their baby's name. I can't blame them, yet I'm having a difficult time drumming up empathy, for some reason.
...But what WAS it. pretty please? The worst names i ever heard were those of a set of twins named Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. No joke.
Well, it wasn't *that* bad! It was "Anniston Jolie."
