My brother and I have two middle names. We've got the first name which was chosen cause my parent's liked them, (rumor has it I was named after a spy from an old TV show) and our middle names are the names of our grandparents. Ex. My first middle name is my dad's mom's name, and my second is my mom's mom's name.
So (and this is a question I ask all my friends who have several names) when you or your brother got in trouble when you were younger, did your parents ever call you by your full names (all four of em)? :D
And Zahara Isis is a lovely name. :D
Thanks. Now I just have to decide if I want to add a last name to that or leave it as "Zahara Isis"

I want to know what happens when 2 of these hypenated double last name kids marry each other. Do they then have 4 last name? Fucking ridiculous.
Not sure but it already sounds like a headache. :(

Yes...:sweatdrop: In fact that was how we could tell how much trouble we were in. If she only yelled your first and last name, you still had some hope. If she busted out all four, you were up shit creek without a boat. :lipsrsealed2:

Having a last name like Isis would be pretty cool, since she's a goddess. :)
Biscuit AWAY!

Just keep them in chronological order. I'm using them to make a flip book of Farhan's 2008. It's supposed to be a surprise, so don't tell Farhan, okay Wally? ;) :D

Wally hate puny Farhan.

I only keep Farhan around because he makes the cash. Without him, Wally would have nothing to spend his measly check on.

It snowed last night. It :censored: snowed! A-:censored:gain.

10 :censored: inches! My shoes are coated with a disgusting grime due to walking through slush and the bottom of my pant legs are stained.

It's like the winter from hell. And it isn't over yet.

Fuck you Mother Nature. You bitter old whore!

I always mean to have a spare set of work clothes, including all of the following:

- couple of plain work shirts
- spare pair of black trousser
- spare boxer shorts
- spare pair of black socks
- spare pair of black shoes, old pair

Then...
- deodorant
- moisturiser
- plasters and first aid kit stuff
- painkillers, lozenges and other meds
- some food

I have most of the bottom list, none of the top.

In all of the places I've worked, the most people keep a spare set of is sneakers, and 95% of the time, it's women who do that. They wear sneakers on their commute, then change into their professional shoes at work.

I don't think I know anyone who keeps a spare set of clothes (work or otherwise) and personal effects at work.

Well, not exactly true. Many people (myself incldued) keep a toothbrush, toothpase, breath mints and some food. But really nothing else you mentioned above.

People sometimes bring their workout clothes with them to work in a duffel bag but that's because they tend to hit the gym right after work.

Well, if you spill coffee on yourself - never have, but one day you know it will happen - you're not just goign to get your troussers wet. Might as well be comfortable and have a spare set of boxers.

That and I routinely piss myself, of course. Did I forget to mention the incontinent pants I keep in my draw? :D

While I do admire his forethought, attention to detail and consideration of the What Ifs? in life... it sounds like he's secretly smuggling his personal belongings out of his home. And one day he'll have enough courage to run away from home, travel the world and become a real man. ^_^
