Actual conversation from yesterday while reading celebrity 'news'.
Me: "Wow."
Husband: "What?"
Me: "Nicole Ritchie had a baby today. They named him SPARROW."
Husband: "SPARROW? As in a bird?"
Me: "Yeah."
Husband: "Why the hell do these people keep naming their kids incredibly stupid ass names?!"
Me: "Hold on, let me find the whole name again. Okay, it's SPARROW JAMES MIDNIGHT MADDEN."
Husband: "What the fuck?! It's a boy?"
Me: "Yes, it's a boy."
Husband: "What the fuck?! They're seriously setting that kid up to get his ass kicked."
Me: "I think they wanted it to match their daughter, HARLOW. I think that's what it is."
Husband: "HARLOW?"
Me: "Yeah, HARLOW WINTER KATE MADDEN."
Husband: "Really? Damn. What's next, MARROW ZIPPY SPRING?"
Me: "Wow. That's just horrible."
Husband: "And naming your kid after a bird at midnight isn't horrible?"
Me: "Well yeah, it is. I don't know, maybe they really really liked the movie Pirates of the Carribean a little bit too much. You know, as in Jack Sparrow - the hot pirate."
*He rolled his eyes at the hot pirate part.*
Husband: "Okay, fine. I like Forrest Gump and The Dark Knight so lets name our kid GUMP JOKER BUBBA."
Me: "That's even worse then the other name! You scare me sometimes."
Husband: "Well the crap people name their kids scares me."
It scares me too.

What really bugs me is that every time a celebrity names their kid a noun, it just makes all the normal people think it's okay to name their kids stupid shit. I think it's Sonny & Cher's fault. They started it.
This came up over dinner tonight and it got to 'which is better, Harlow or Sparrow'.
The obvious answer is 'neither' but it's come to this; that we almost pick Sparrow.....
Sheesh.
