I was skimming my Google homepage for my morning dose of news and found this little gem out of New Zealand.  Apparently, a couple had decided to name their newborn baby “4Real” because they saw the ultrasound and knew the baby was “for real”. But, because it was rejected by some sort of New Zealand baby name registry for including numbers and not using consecutive characters, they’ve decided to formally name the baby “Superman” while still referring to is as “4Real”.

I’m sorry, but are you fucking kidding me?  Stupidity this grand deserves profanity. These people are breeding?  I think the movie Idiocracy is right, smart people are over-thinking their procreation, being too cautious, waiting until it’s too late or they’re too old or they only have one baby. (And believe me, I feel that way, too.) Meanwhile, we’re being out-bred by miscreants who want to name their kid UB40 or whatever.  Jesus H.  Smart people!  Put down the Nietzsche and start shagging.  I implore you.

Pat and Sheena Wheaton say they will get around the decision by the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages by officially naming their son Superman but referring to him as 4Real, the New Zealand Herald newspaper has reported.

The Wheatons decided on the name after seeing the baby for the first time in an ultrasound scan and realizing their baby was “for real.”

“No matter what its going to stay 4Real,” Wheaton told the Herald, “I’m certainly not a quitter.”
