I went to junior high with Manual Labor. True story.
There is a real marine gunnery sergeant (or that was his rank at the time) named Max Fightmaster.

I dated a girl in high school named Rosemary Major. Her dad was in the Army, and was a Sergeant Major. Yes...he was Sergeant Major Major.

Edit to add...she had the most conical shaped breasteses that God ever placed on a young lady. Geometrically precise cones, that were endlessly fascinating to me.

^In my unit there is a SGT Majors. SGM Major is far better though :)

I just played a random battle as the Arabs, and it reminds me of why I hate armies without heavy infantry. It doesn't matter what the game is or what the time period is, I need my damn heavies.
In Rome Total War the ONLY units I would use were phalanx, triari, princeps and horse archers. Everything else was so inferior that the ability to flank = irrelevant.

Having never played the FoG series of games (physical or electronic) I am pleasantly surprised at the depth of the system. It will take some time to appreciate its intricacies, but the manual and tutorial seem to be excellent.

Knew a guy from West Virginia who dated a young lady named Krystal Lear.
Her middle name was Shonda.

I went to school with a hot girl who's middle and last name was, "Mae" and "Lay".  She was VERY popular.  :bd:

A good friend, a local attorney, proved on the White Pages that he had a client named Phuc Liu.

He insisted on being addressed by his first name.

My friend demurred.

The private name would be Liu, as names from the far east are usually ordered with the surname coming first.


There's a famous Israeli singer (now deceased) called Uzi Hitman, beat that for a cool name :P

Time for that oft used 'Off-Topic Trainwreck' emote. We've got a guy married into my wife's side of the family who's a great guy but was born in west Africa and has a French last name that in the King's English sounds like 'asshole'.

My wife always gives me the, "Don't you dare" look when I talk to him. We call him by his first name.  ;D

^Where I worked, there was an Arab employee who had a first name that sounds like "My Ass".
I just had to imagine what it would be like for him to go through airport security in the U.S with that name.

"And who are you sir?"
"My Ass"
Major trouble ensues.

At my work we had a company that did any carpentry/joinery which needed doing and they were called Max Wood, which I always thought would make a great name for a porn star.

Wait, wait. You're going too fast. I can't write all these names down fast enough-- my next Pillars of Eternity party.
