Names.
I work in a hotel and today I saw for the first time someone with the surname 'Lovetube'. Among others I have seen:
Mr Sprinkle
Mr Butt
Mr Funk
Mr & Mrs Hailstones
Ms. Mary Christmas (no, really)
How I love my job. Anyone else know anyone with an amusing surname?

Re: Names.
Years and years ago, with my then gf, we booked into a Bed and Breakfast, and decided to use false names just for a laff. We pretended to be married so we signed in as Mr +Mrs whatever, I can`t remember the exact name, just something ridiculus.

Re: Names.
Just found this document on my computer:
Quote:
Two guys have wasted their time at airports, in this case, London’s Heathrow, by writing down strange names and asking the airport Information Center to locate these people by calling out their names on the airport’s PA system. These guys would then hang out beneath the speakers and record the results.
In order to make it as believable as possible, they dressed up as chauffeurs and asked for help finding these people about 40 minutes after a Thai Airways or Air India flight had landed.
They acted as if they could not pronounce the names themselves, so as not to reveal the joke, but just handed over a note with the names printed on it and asked the employ at the Information Center.
After the fifth recording, they had to leave Heathrow as airport security figured out what was going on. The last recording is from Gatwick.
Arheddis Varkenjaab and Aywellbe Fayed
Arhevbin Fayed and Bybeiev Rhibodie
Aynayda Pizaqvick and Malexa Kriest
Awul Dasfilshabeda and Nowaynayda Zheet
Makollig Jezvahted and Levdaroum DeBahzted
Steelaygot Maowenbach and Tuka Piziniztee
|
Obviously I can't put the recordings on here...
