He was a pediatrician, it's a totally different thing

[–] BreadOven 1 points 11 months ago

Was he actually? I don't remember that, although it's been a while since I've seen that episode.

Bob would become Bo. Bo would also be Bo. That would be confusing.

It's one way of shortening "Gabrielle"

It's a cute nickname for Gabe Newell

Which ironically also works with this

Only if someone misspells Gabby.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Actually, Spanish speakers spell it Gaby as it's consistent with their language

[–] shneancy 2 points 11 months ago

same with Polish speakers

[–] Mamertine 4 points 11 months ago

Or if you remove the third letter of Gabby, you'd get Gaby.

Just follow the instructions twice, but not three times.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

If someone misspells Gabby... Maybe by removing the third letter from the name? It all circles back to the initial meme!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Polo was his surname. These are first names.

[–] CaptainBlagbird 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I know, but you said Polo so I said Marco.

Im not sure if angus is a real name, but anyway

[–] CaptainBlagbird 13 points 11 months ago

Do you know AC/DC?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

It's very USA Southern. I knew an Angus.

[–] Iron_Lynx 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think it's a relatively common name among Irish people. It certainly is a name that vibes Irish to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Scottish, from Aengus, from Angaidh (An-Ghee)
