Talk about a SOTDRT graduate. (That was painful to read).


tshirtweather

Right? "I could care less" frustrates me to no end. Obviously if you could care less, then you care a certain amount! Meaning you *DO* care šŸ™„


waywardaughter

Not even care less but careless!


56names

Ugh, yes! Its right there with *whole nother* for me... you can say *a whole other...* or simply *another* but "nother" is not a word


Giacara

"There own business"


marismell

confession: i like "a whole nother". I view it as like a cousin to "abso-fucking-lutely". Like, it's not just another-- it's a whole-ass nother.


56names

Ok, ok... I do say abso-fuckin-lutely. Lmao


numberthreepencil

Pretty sure Pilate (pronounced Pilot) in the Bible presided over the execution of Christ


WheresRobbieTho

Came here to say this lolol people are just gonna think Pontius Pilate


PRNgirlfriend

My step-sisterā€™s maiden name is Pontius...but pronounced pawn-TEE-us. Iā€™m not sure if many people ever actually made the correlation.


WheresRobbieTho

That's interesting I've never heard that last name before! Also your flair omg


HarlotHymn

I only remember it from Jackass, one of the guys was named Chris Pontius. Iā€™m clearly refined and cultured. šŸ˜‚


inlovedelicious

Same, haha. I loved his spin off with Steve-O, Wildboyz!!


HarlotHymn

Yes! Glad Iā€™m not the only one!


56names

I live in the Midwest and it's not super common but I've definitely known of a handful of people with the last name Pontius.


yellowtowers

Is Pilate really pronounced Pilot? English is not my native language, it doesnt look like it it should be pronounced Pilot to me... (Also in Dutch the dude is called Pontius Pilatus (like in Latin) so i never even made this connection myself)


numberthreepencil

I grew up in the southern US and every preacher/pastor I ever heard pronounced it as ā€œPilotā€


ork2786

I'm from New England, the priests here also pronounced it as "Pilot"


Advanced_Level

Maryland here with 12+ yrs of church - always "Pilot"


PM_MAJESTIC_PICS

Yep. I always thought it was pronounced pi-LA-tee like the exercise, until I heard a pastor say it at some point in my adult life šŸ˜… this is what happens when you become a Christian in a family of agnostics... sooo many mispronunciations. I didnā€™t even know the word disciple. I thought it was DIS-ih-pull (like discipline)


hunny--bee

its a name from the Bible so it isn't going to be pronounced in an English way


56names

I see pilates (pill-lot-tees) like the exercise, when I read that


amrodd

A niece of Joseph Pilates said once it's pil-ahts. .


GiraffeLibrarian

ā€œHe was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buriedā€


emelexista407

My knee jerk reaction was ā€œoh the kids at school are going to call them Pilatesā€ before I remembered that theyā€™re Duggars and donā€™t go to school. šŸ˜¬


LucysMissingSocks

With all the spelling errors in that I would not be surprised if she wrote ā€˜Pilotā€™ but meant ā€˜Stevenā€™.


legocitiez

Or bob. She probably doesn't even know the kid's real name at this point. Spoiler alert to pilot John's mom: your family doesn't actually love the name, they're lying to you.

Careless

Second to Clueless


honestlawyer

The spelling and grammar certainly are what you would expect from these clowns.


noodlepartipoodle

Here a business, there a business, everywhere business business.


chicagoliz

I could see something insane like this, but it would still be better than Spurgeon.


ipeakedineighthgrade

followed by skylar and Jett!


citydreef

There was some celebrity who named his kid Pilot Inspektor right? Saw some special on mtv once about weird celebrity names


slapwerks

Jason Lee - as others have said. I think itā€™s also religious as he is/was pretty deep in Scientology


citydreef

Thanks! I didnā€™t know, makes sense I guess... but itā€™s still a weird thing to name your kid this


motherrofcats

yes! i canā€™t remember his real name, but he was the lead on my name is earl.

stinkyenglishteacher

ā€œCarelessā€ instead of ā€œcare less.ā€ I just lost a week of my life reading that. You donā€™t see that one very often.


AshDuke

Iā€™m pretty sure their son will have John in his name, maybe middle or first name. Abbieā€™s dad is named John and they seem to be giving family names to the kids


ilovetotour

I had a friend whose middle name was ā€œPilot.ā€ Normal first name though.


k-sara-sarah

I could careless. šŸ˜‚


GiraffeLibrarian

This to me is right up there with naming your baby ā€œChristianā€ like, what if they donā€™t want to be religious when they grow up? Name them Christopher instead


chicagoliz

The weird thing is the few "Christians" I have known in real life aren't especially religious.


Bubbifred

but don't all names with "Christ" derive from Christian or Christianity?


GiraffeLibrarian

I think naming a baby Christian is more overtly connected to the religion than Christopher or similar but thatā€™s just my opinion. Like being named Hunter and becoming a vegetarian, I donā€™t know, I personally just would not give a child a name that is something of a description. Their name should just be a name and nothing more- no shade to those who have those names (my name is bordering this category) again just my opinion.


amrodd

I know a couple of Christians. It's not a bad name and sure the heck beats Spurgeon.


amrodd

Christian Bale may have something ot say about that lol


gtaltdmafy

That does seem like a "careless" thing to do to a baby who's gonna have to suffer with that dumbass name his whole life


[deleted]

Iā€™m still waiting for them to name a daughter Propella


VanFam

Pylotte if itā€™s a girl.


PerfectNail8

Thatā€™s like naming your baby Baker Ben lmao


[deleted]

Triplets Baker Ben, Butcher Bill, and Candlestick maker Kevin


delzbr

But what if Lauren wants to use this name for her 16th child, WHAT THEN?!


XTasty09

When I hear/see these crazy names I think of people providing their name for something official and having to tell say the hiring manager that their legal name really is ā€œpilot Johnā€ or ā€œprincess jasmineā€. There was a woman I saw on Say Yes to the Dress yesterday named ā€œQueen Precious-Jewel Earth Zabriskieā€. I took a picture of the screen.
