I see that there's an attachment on this thread which someone added. I didn't know that anyone can add an attachement. Can someone please explain how that's done? Also, how do you tell who added the attachment and what does it mean?

It's just a little picture with words. Click on the paperclip. Someone put it in one of their posts along the way. I guess you would have to go through the thread to see who.
I worked with a young Philippina with the name GRAMMA in customer service.
That poor girl got so much shyte for her name, it is unbelievable. Everybody thought her name is GRAND MA or that we call her GRAND MA as a nickname. She was cute and hot but the name just ruined half of it.

Oh, I don't know. When they weren't beating me senseless or locking me in the cupboard under the stairs, my parents often called me worse (profane) things growing up and I turned out alright.

I'm with you one hundred percent. Some of the "names" coming out of some communities in America today are quite repulsive.
Its not what a man thinks what determines who he is but what he does
Same is true of what others say
