Australian comedian tests the absolute limits of baby naming – and gets away with it
Australian comedian and journalist Kirsten Drysdale went out to test the very limits of decency and normality in baby naming and ended up naming her son something astonishingly strange.
As part of the ABC show WTFAQ, former Chaser prankster Drysdale went to see what names are and aren’t allowed to be registered, only to end up with her joke name suggestion “Methamphetamine Rules” as her newborn’s name.
Drysdale spoke to Joe Hildebrand about how this happened, as they discussed the strange world of government bureaucracy and job automation that allowed this to happen.
