- muxaulo, on 03/29/2009, -8/+90Britain experiences ***** shrinkage.
- bgolds99, on 03/29/2009, -1/+69This is funny because "*****" and "Wang" are slang words for a penis.
- thegamingguy, on 03/29/2009, -2/+46Does "the British are coming" still apply?
- Jeepy, on 03/30/2009, -0/+32Oh hello chum, name's Cocksworth Ballswellington McCuntsly, charmed I'm sure.
/top hat tip and monocle adjustment - lpxxfaintxx2, on 03/30/2009, -2/+29And penis is funny because it is a sex organ and it is taboo to talk about it in public.
- poidh, on 03/29/2009, -0/+26It's been the coldest winter for years, ok?
- reflex768, on 03/29/2009, -2/+28Doesn't matter how many diamonds are at Tiffany's son, you still can't afford one. ;-)
- rahsut, on 03/29/2009, -1/+26dugg just for the clever title
- inactive, on 03/29/2009, -1/+26I have seen a lot of people from the UK with these funny surnames, but it's not just a UK phenomena, it's worldwide. There are people with funny surnames in a number of countries and some of them are actually pretty funny, so it's no surprise that people change these names which cause snickering.
The final wave will be names which mean awful stuff in other languages. For example, Brazilian President "Lula". His nickname, "Lula" means "penis" in Urdu - the language of Pakistan, a nation of some 173 million people.
I've met a gentleman from Eastern Europe whose last name was "Puta", which means nothing in Eastern European languages, but if he ever goes to Spain or Portugal, he will be in for a real shock when he learns that his name is the worst thing you can call someone in Spanish (puta = whore). - DouglasQ, on 03/29/2009, -2/+25hey...hey yeah! he's right!
- briguymaine, on 03/29/2009, -0/+18FTA "those called Balls fell to 1,299 from 2,904." Would've been funnier if Balls dropped, right?
- rypic7, on 03/29/2009, -2/+19I was shocked when I saw this wasn't from The Onion.

- darklights, on 03/30/2009, -0/+4***** or Cox is (was) a reasonably common surname - I went to school with a few of them. Trebilcock was a common surname in my part of the country too.
- TheMachine1, on 03/30/2009, -0/+4The stress from answering all those crank callers shortens their lifespans.
- themastersb, on 03/30/2009, -0/+3I find it funny how people with the name "Cockburn" pronounce their name improperly and insist that it's said 'Coughburn' in order to avoid ridicule, but we all know the truth.
- Sarai0989, on 03/30/2009, -0/+3One of the clients at the place I used to work had the surname Cockshott, he insisted it was pronounced "Co-shay".

- morningmatters, on 03/30/2009, -0/+2One of the side effects of the internets is that it's much harder to find a good name for your kids that won't offend some people in some languages.
- mitso6989, on 03/30/2009, -0/+2In soviet Russia, ***** and balls shrinks you.
