PRESLEY   1,201 #25 Posted February 8, 2018 No, 'Sunbeam', you're pointing out your opinion. It's a very silly opinion, and whilst you're of course entitled to have such an opinion, people are equally entitled to point out that it's stupid. It's not a fact though.  That's your Opinion!

Bodie   11 #31 Posted February 8, 2018 Does it really matter? I know a lot of people and only know their first names, I'll have to ask them if they have a double barrelled surname and then decide if I still want to talk to them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

barleycorn   10 #33 Posted February 8, 2018 Flippin hell! I know about genuine reasons, Im just saying SOME people do it just to show off, SOME PEOPLE, NOT ALL! Ive said this several times, So, your whole argument is some people like to show off and some people like to show off by getting a double barrelled surname... aaaand, for this reason, you hate them. OK. Was this really worthy of a thread? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Waldo   96 #34 Posted February 8, 2018 People do all kinds of things in order that others perceive them differently (better). They'll do so for all kinds of reasons. Surely that's no reason to hate them?  Hate is a serious thing, and as these people don't know (or care) that you're hating on them, it only serves to make your own life a little more unpleasant, so why bother?  Better to wish them well (come to place of contentment where they feel no need to impress others) and just focus on stuff that's more immediate in your own life.

Calm down, if you read properly, I said some people not all. A lot of Aristocrats have double barrel names and some pretentious gits think its clever to copy to make themselves feel important and make others think that they are important. Its not a ridiculous thread, people like this make me sick. ... which is far better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
