I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

My gut reaction is Bacon, and, given that I've just had chocolate pudding to appease the inner food gods, I think that's not because of the yum.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Davey Ball has a nice ring to it but he would have been teased mercilessly as a child.

I like Ball, but I'm afraid it's too punny on a variety of levels. But sometimes punny isn't such a bad thing, and it *is* a real name, so I waffle undecidedly.

Always Anti-fascist!

If you like the pun, and he makes life hard on people, maybe Baines is better.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'd go with Baines.

I tried Baines last night, but I may switch to Bacon or Ball after all--I'd forgotten my vow never to give a character a name ending in "s" again. The possessive forms annoy me that much--Baines' looks wrong, because there's only one of him, but Baines's looks awkward. Maybe I'll go back to that Yorkshire surname list and see if Baine or Bain can be a name by itself, because it *does* suit the character...

ETA--and Bain it is.

Don't know if it is worth posting challenges, but for those in a drabble mood, after this week's events, what else but ---

"Wet" t Edit for clarification (non-porn)

To make it a proper *challenge* it should be "wet, non-porn"
