    Just fyi, it’s “mic” when talking about microphones.

            You know I was going to put that first but couldn’t getting the spelling close enough for predictive text to pick up and didn’t want to randomly say “genital mutilation” to my phone while sat on the bus.

              Yeah, you want to be precise when talking about destroying naughty bits on mass transit.

              As a bonus, my phone has VERY bad ideas for events 😂

          I mean U.S. presidential debates don’t need to be posh intellectual philosophy clubs, but cutting Mikes on the stage, that would be a bit too far.

          (Also if your data is accurate they would probably run out of uncut Mikes really fast.)

            Looks like around 8,000 Michael’s were born in 2023, so probably about another 4,000 so far this year. I’ll not sure at what age American’s start mutilating their children’s penises though, so I guess some of those might already be done.

        They did… Mike’s not the VP candidate this time around. I was trying to figure out what he was going to be doing at the debate….
