    My bio teachers last name was “MoCock.” His wife’s first name is "Love."We just called him,“Mr. Mo”. I think it’s crazy she took his name, lmao.

      I know a girl named Paige that married a man with the last name Page.

      We call her Page 2. It’s also fun when they disagree and I ask if they can get on the same page.

        I have a friend named Blair who married a man with the last name Blair. We call her “Blair Squared” and she hates it.

        I know a couple with the same name (one masculine one feminine version). Their names can both be shortened to “little bear”. I will never stop calling them collectively “Haribo”

          A buddy of mine dated a girl in high school that had the feminine version of his name and they had the same last name (no relation, but we gave him shit anyway).

          I’m sad we gave him so much shit because that was the coolest person he dated over the next two decades. He agrees that she should have been his first wife and he should have hyphenated his last name.

      I kept my name when I got married but I probably would have changed my name if I was her.

        Yeah, 2015 (kind of). How’s the couch? Apparently, Mr. Bojangles is still alive. I’m on the couch too, no judgment lol. Also, he’s really kind if you hit him up. PM me. I don’t want to get doxxed. I’m not sure if that means anything to you. If you know me, you can look at my username and know who I am. I say some pretty radical stuff on lemmy, so I’d prefer to keep my cards to my chest.

          Nah lol. 2005 here, i wont know you. Small world though. Mr mo was new the year I took his class. For sure on the doxxing.

          Also, don’t treat lemmy any different than any other site. Nobody is above being subpoenad and people hosting these instances would be, if anything, more susceptible and more pliable to law enforcement.
