      In a different hemisphere than my ancestors, my surname translates to “Go Fuck Yourself”.

      Found that out while working in a restaurant staffed by speakers of that language. Thought they were fucking with me but I googled it.

          1. Jason isn’t my real first name

          2. More east. And south. I think. Is that Russian?

            1. Shhhhh don’t kill the joke
            2. Yup, Russian. Which is east, tbf. It’s also two words scrunched together to make a fake last name if we have to pick it apart, and I also am pretty sure we haven’t really met. Now that it’s been completely disected shhhhh don’t kill the joke haha.

      My full name translates to “strict and serious son of a farmer”, which describes my dad quite well and me not at all 🤦😂
