Seriously? Mako?

Mako?

Why am I not surprised Papa's enough of an idiot to name me after a shark if I were a boy?

I should write and tell him he's an idiot. But then he might send back another soggy letter. He's such a crybaby.

Mako? Try Enid. If that name doesn't scream snobby, stuck-up parents I don't know what does.

[makachopgo]

You'd think they would have stuck with Soul. That's not exactly the most overtly masculine word.

[brbbeincool]

Hey, I'm plenty masculine.

[makachopgo]

Of course you are!

[redwhiteandhero]

A shark?

[makachopgo]

Yeah, you know, a mako shark? Although it wasn't pronounced the same it was definitely spelled the same.

[redwhiteandhero]

I thought it was just like Maka with an O. 'Cause you were a boy.

[makachopgo]

It was like Maka with an O.

But it was after the shark, not "Maka with an O."

He--or...actually he was a she--wouldn't have known that my name was Maka to add an O to the end of it.

[allsarcasm]

Honestly, I've heard of worse names.

[makachopgo]

Really? Like what?

[allsarcasm]

Waldo.

They're around, but they're a pain in the rear end to find in a crowd.

[makachopgo]

[...Pfft.]

Good one, Daria.

Sorry, Gamzee, that must have been really confusing.

[puckinyourmom]

What are you talking about? I'd kill to be named after a shark.

[makachopgo]

Then I guess we should trade parents or something.

[puckinyourmom]

I'll come stay for a while if your mum's hot.

[makachopgo]

[Oh no he didn't.]

My parents are divorced. I haven't seen my mother in three years. So, it's just my dad and me.
