Okay so this is kind of random but I was thinking today that there are several perfectly good names that will forever be tainted because I associate them with people who scared/annoyed/angered me in some way. I realize that there are many great people who posses these names, some of whom I know personally and think are great, but the association lives on. Here are some of those names......
Patrick - This name belonged to that kid who would stalk my sister and I at every dance (mostly my poor sister). When we saw him coming we would book it the bathroom (and sometimes spend a good portion of the night there).
Nicole - She was my nemeses in kindergarten. Loud, obnoxious and always the teacher's pet. It was the last straw when her ocean painting (which was obviously inferior to mine with its subtle shading and strong use of color) won the blue ribbon in the school art contest, and mine only won a red ribbon.
Ira - Another annoying kid I knew growing up. Our families always went on trips together & I became really good at avoiding him. Seriously though I don't think the name has any redeeming qualities either -it should just be retired.
Jennifer - I have know several annoying Jennifer's.......they seem to fit a particular mold loud, obnoxious, look-at-me types.....I just don't do well with this type in general.
Kyle - Loud, obnoxious and thought he possesed maximum coolness.
Monica - Spoiled brat second cousin that was always bossing us around. We were told we must be nice & include her in our fun but it was hard oh so hard!
Dwight - Jerkish tuff guy wrestler type. Also had a unibrow.
Jake - I haven't know anyone I really intensely disliked with this name, but for some reason it conjures up a soft, greasy-looking guy.
This post probably cements me as kind of a mean horrible person. Really there are lots of good people with the names all I am saying is they are tainted.....
