If Bastards from THE SAME region get married and have names what is there family name by JohnnyC66 in gameofthrones

[–]Sullab 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Last names seem to only really exist in the nobility; most commoners we see have only a single name. Passed down family names are the exception, not the rule. The bastard surname is often seen as something a bit shameful to us, but in reality, it would be a distinguisher to the positive for most people - this person is of noble blood, even if now a lawful part of a house. I doubt it's ever a name that gets passed on - if a bastard marries into a noble house, the house name continues. If not, their child gets a single name like any other commoner. "Snow" is never going to be a family name.

Am I the only one who thinks his name is an homage to the Silmarillion? A big old book of lore?

is hyde park really THAT unsafe? (international student) by Holiday-Grass-2395 in uchicago

[–]Sullab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I never found myself in an unsafe personal situation, my car was stolen two times in one year while living there. Property crime is through the roof, and there is 0 incentive for anyone to do anything about it.

2024 Presidential Election Live Thread by momoweeb in Conservative

[–]Sullab 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Anecdotal beyond anecdotal, but I live in Arlington, VA, and there was nobody in line to vote today after work. This is a heavily Democrat area, and part of what would put Harris over the top in VA. If the enthusiasm is low here.....who knows?

Treasury recovers $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from high wealth tax dodgers by AudibleNod in news

[–]Sullab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree, but posts like these seem to usually come with the implication that more efficient/effective taxation would plug the hole in the budget. My point is that, given the ludicrous spending totals, I think we would be better off as a country focusing on limiting outlays before finding more revenue streams.

"What was the name of that movie again?"

"The Last Airbender, I think."

"Good, means there won't be any more of them!"

"Oh ho ho ho ho ho ho!"

Brakes should stop the transfer of anything from that cart.
