What a gangster of love

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 48 points 4 days ago (4 children)

It's great because A) his parents presumably named him that knowing full well what they were doing and B) He could have chosen to go by Will, William, or Bill, but actively chose to use Willie professionally.

Will Stroker? Not a lot better.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 days ago

Will Stroker? I hardly know 'er!

[–] Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 4 days ago

Depending on his middle name he could also be William A Stroker

Son, this world is rough, and if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough. I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along, so I give you that name, and I said goodbye. And I knew you'd have to get tough or die. It's that name that helped to make you strong.

Do you think both the boy and the father are named Sue?

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago

No, but the boy is telling the story in the song.

And here I expected that link to lead to a certain highly controversial Penny Arcade comic.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 8 points 4 days ago

He made the right choice.

[–] paranoia@feddit.dk 6 points 3 days ago

You see a lot of people in Ireland with names like this. A senior politician was called Dick Roche (pronounced roach)

[–] its_kim_love@lemmy.blahaj.zone 28 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Dick Trickle: Am I a joke to you?

Yes, as a matter of fact.

[–] JustRalph@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This man lived a hard life.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

He just n eds to get a grip

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 days ago

I hope he's a legal judge, I want to hear:

All rise for the right honorable Willie Stroker

In a court room, and have anyone who laughs get a contempt charge.

[–] cattywampas@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Willie Stroker? Or Willie not? Only one way to find out! Tune in next week!

[–] swab148@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Next week: "Stroker? I 'ardly know 'er!"

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago
