    While I never wish for anyone's death, I occasionally read an obituary that makes me smile.

    I saw a statistic that 5 of the top 25 girl names in 2025 were exclusively male names in 1900 (Madison, Taylor, Lauren, Sydney, and Morgan). There are weird shifts in history where feminine-sounding names become very popular for boys. I know the Victorians loved names like Llewellyn, Ambrose, Ashley, etc for boys.

    I don't know specifics of Lindsay's naming, but is seems like kind of an attempt to make your child sound cultured and aristocratic? My guess is that something along those lines is what drove his parents.

    His middle name was Olin, which is also kind of not the kind of name you come up with off the cuff.

    one can tell a lot about a person by the way they react when someone dies.

    How did Graham react to the deaths of the thousands he sent to war?

    Wow it's almost like god saved his parents from knowing what a hideous being they gave birth to.

    Tough luck for the sister. She's free now.

    With excitement and joy. He talked about "incidentally" murdering civilians the way a fat kid talks about cake.

    Absolutely hilarious anyone dares to criticize people for ******** on his grave. This is a man who cared about his cheques from the weapons industry and Israel more than he cared about thousands of babies being killed.

    There are less than 10 people on earth who have made a higher volume of mass-murdering public statements than this man.

    Thank God he's dead it's actually majorly helpful to the world and America.

    I don't understand why Democrats are trying to shame him into being gay. Is there something wrong with him being gay or whatever? Hypocrites to the highest order.

    Your smarter than that, and playing games as usual, trying your own hand at trying to shame people.

    He's being shamed for having been so deep in the closet that he's tripping over next year's Christmas presents for the kids.

    If he was true to himself and admited who he was nobody would blink twice. It is the fact that he's SO obviously gay but would rather die than admit it to anybody is why he was mercilessly made fun of while alive. His repression is the issue, not his orientation. Hopefuly he feels free enough to let Satan know, now.

    Why is it justified to shame someone for being closeted? Seems like such a weird argument to pick up.

    I know the maga people don't care, but historically, Americans have placed high value on expecting honesty and transparancy from people they elect to political office.

    We care for the same reason we care about any of Trump's or any other politician's overt hypocracy and make fun of it. Don't "piss on me and tell me it's raining", would be the clasic idiomatic response.
