You could call him Henny, like Henny Youngman. He would get beat up and teased by kids that that don't know who he's named after.

Isn't there a Scandinavian country like Iceland or something, that names their kids with a given name, and then the surname is son of father's name? Like Magnus Jansen, or Jan Hendrickson.
Stop being meanie jerks. Although Mangus is a cool name. It sounds like a giant condom and also a dude who could kick your ass. Like viking shit.
What is plasma? It's something in blood right?
Hearing a lot about donating plasma these days and it makes me feel dumb. I know donating blood is easy, I've done that before. Also donating bone marrow is horribly painful I've heard. I will likely never do that. I used to give my dog bones with marrow in the middle. She loved them and would lick them forever and then I'd have to take a screwdriver to get the little bit of marrow in the middle out so she could eat it. Then she'd go bury the bone. Like 6 months later she would come back in the house with a disgusting dirt filled bone.
So with all those facts...much like how I'm pretty much a professional chef, I'm also pretty much a doctor.

Henny Youngman's real first name was Henry. "I went to the psychiatrist. I said 'Doc, I think I'm an auto mechanic.' He said, 'Okay, get under the couch.' No, I told the psychiatrist I have an inferiority complex. I said nobody wants to talk to me. He hollered, 'Next!' He's a fancy psychiatrist. He has his office decorated in nutty pine."
In 2012 on that *other* site, I posted the sad saga of Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop. Yes, that was his legal name – and he got arrested three times.

Those things are a rip-off. They are just as tight as the regular ones.
Will Ferrell's son is named Magnus.
My wife was a stem-cell match for her oldest sister (who died of non-hodgkins lymphoma), so she did the transplant like 3 times. They take it from the marrow. It wasn't fun, and ultimately it was too late.
Well that is a horrible bummer.
Real life things suck. TV and movies are better cause you can pretend the real life stuff doesn't exist for a little while. Same goes for Disney World.
Honest question, they stick a needle in the bone in your back to suck it out right? I didn't know a needle could pierce a bone. Or is it in those middle parts of the spine between the bones...those shock absorber like things? I sound like an idiot.
EDIT:
They are called the vertebral discs. I looked it up and now I'm smart so go suck it.

I never donated marrow, but I did have a bone marrow biopsy once. Needle in the back. They put me to sleep so I never felt it, and wasn't especially painful in recovery either.
Marrow donation is probably a lot worse.

Do any of you know anything about medical stuff cause Aaron's post leads me to another question.
When they put you under anesthesia they also have to intubate you right? Seems like that should be done in a hospital so if something goes wrong they have real doctors there to fix you not rando dentists or plastic surgeons. But I think a lot of it is done in-office.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
First we were told "red men" was a racist term and we should call them "Indians." Then we were told "Indians" was a racist term and we should call them "native Americans." Now, apparently, even "native American" is a racist term. Not only that, the woman pictured on packages of Land O'Lakes butter is presented as a "sex object." Really? It's a painting, not a real woman. Chalk up another victory for the PC crowd.

Land O'Lakes Removing Native American Woman From Packaging After 92 Years
Photos of members of the farmer-owned cooperative will replace the logo used since 1928.
That logo has been a little problematic for Land O Lakes for some time.
There was this thing you could do where you would cut her knees off of one side of the box and tape it behind the butter box she's holding on the other and cut the box into a flap. It would make her flash you.
They removed her knees from the box at one point, and now she's completely gone.
Butter is still butter, so it's not like people should be upset that they took her off of the packaging. It's not like they are changing the name of a sports team.

In the 1920s – and no, I wasn't around back then! – there was this brand of canned vegetables:
And in 1921 in Chicago, this ice-cream treat was introduced:
Of course in the 1920s nobody complained about stereotypes. Just ask Al Jolson!

Eskimo Pies are still around. Since 2007, the brand has been owned by the Dreyer's division of Nestlé. Christian Nelson, who created the confection, originally called it the I-Scream Bar, a name which sounds more appropriate for Hallowe'en candy. He arranged for them to be mass-produced by the Russell Stover Candy Company and it was Stover's wife who came up with the new name Eskimo Pie. Here is the Eskimo Pie website – and are people who gorge themselves on ice cream treats really all that concerned with "nutrition facts"? I think not.
