If I was a girl, I would have been named Rebecca. I would like to think that I would have shortened it to Becky…or Becca.

I was supposed to be Leia but my dad told my mom it’d be cruel to give a child such a geeky name. If he’d been given the opportunity to meet Future Leah, I’m sure he wouldn’t have fought her on that.

If I’d been a boy, I would’ve been Andrew or Quinn.

I need to stop eating these Doritos. I bought them to use in a special sandwich, not munch on out of boredom late at night after I’ve already eaten a full meal!

I need to hear more of this sandwich!

I would have much preferred you to be a female Leia than a male Quinn.

I am ashamed to admit it but I might be following the Lindsay Lohan news for the next week or two. grabs popcorn

What’s going on with Lindsay Lohan?

Scrax · 2010-05-21T07:57:10.000Z

She missed her DUI court hearing, because she is partying it up in France.

Enidigm · 2010-05-21T08:04:35.000Z

And how is that different, than, say, every day of her life? Hasn’t she been a party girl on the verge of mental, social, and financial collapse for a couple of years?

Scrax · 2010-05-21T08:07:20.000Z

Well there is a warrant out for her arrest, and people are not-so-silently hoping that the judge will throw that bitch in jail.

The final culmination of a drunken whore’s fall from the top. Interesting.

Hollywood’s a rough place on young women. 90%+ of them are cast for their looks, and cast away when their looks fail to draw at the box office. Even supposed AAA hotties like Megan Fox are not immune. The hard part is that these kinds of young women tend to think themselves immortal and infinitely powerful in their beauty only to belatedly discover that they’re just moths in the limelight; and that their draw is not how many guys vote them No. 1 in Maxim but how many people show up to see their movies, something which seems to take them all by surprise, over and over again.

I’m not saying she/they hasn’t make bad decisions. You have to be a certain kind of person to want all that attention, constantly and incessantly.

I wonder if it makes sense financially to ever buy food products from Amazon.

I’m guessing it does if you have Amazon Prime. But I often wonder the same thing.

It might’ve been Quentin, can’t remember. I agree either way though. I’d also rather be Leia than Leah since everyone pronounces my name wrong anyway.

Rhymes with “yeah”, don’t it?

Rhymes with “see ya”. LEE-uh. Leia = LAY-uh. Most people go with LAY-uh on the first try.

I like my idea better. One syllable, easily pronounced after a fifth of grain alcohol. “Leaaaaaah! Fell offa da floor 'gain!”

…I think I just cracked Gary’s creative writing process.

Leah_C · 2010-05-21T12:18:52.000Z

That’s probably exactly what my dad was thinking when he made the switch!

Anders_Hallin · 2010-05-21T12:22:57.000Z

Hmm, I fear my somewhat Swedish pronunciation would be incorrect too :(

Leah_C · 2010-05-21T13:26:43.000Z

Mispronunciations due to accent are forgivable and at times endearing. It’s only annoying when someone with the same/similar accent pronounces it wrong after being corrected.
