Just One Theory

I'm always sort of amazed that the name "Loveless" is so relatively common. My only theory about its derivation is that some lippy old hag was sitting around a holiday meal on Magna Carta Day or whatever they celebrated, and suddenly interrupted all the brutal family fighting to shriek, "Know what they should call this family? Loveless! They should call it Loveless!"

  1. We always have a nice, peaceful family dinner on Magna Carta Day. I generally boil some mutton.

  2. That's funny: we thought it was a holiday celebrating the best in carts, so we just wheel each other around the neighborhood.
