My first kitten was called Rails, but be run away. The second one, Ruby, but she died from sickness the second day we had her home. The third one was Rails 2, but we called him just Rails, he's 10 yo now. The fourth one wad called PowerBI, buy ny wife didn't like and it was a lame name anyway so we changed it to Sushi.

We named our son "Foo Bar" but we used the alternate spelling "Fubar" to make it look more reasonable.

[–] ohholyjesus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This is a joke, right? Because FUBAR is not something you should name a kid.
