Silly German pun

…ich frage mich, wieviele Amerikaner am 3. November zu ihrem Telefon gegangen sind und verzweifelt auf „Wahlwiederholung“ gedrückt haben…

Random thought: Kris and variants

I think that the spellings "Kristina" / "Kristopher" / "Kris" with initial K- look ugly. As in, icky icky "who would want to call their child that, that's just Wrong" ugly.

Oddly enough, perhaps, I'm fine with "Kristen", "Kristin", and "Kirsten" (and "Kerstin", which I haven't seen on a native English speaker)—possibly because I haven't seen those names spelled with Chr-.
