Unfortunate names

Mr. Tea

"can't soundclash" according to a VERY HARD MAN
Another NFL college player with a completely ridiculous name, where the fuck do they find these people? What is wrong with American names, you would never get someone from the UK called... Memorable Factor...

Well it is certainly memorable.

The surname could, I guess, be derived from the Polish name Faktorowicz? As in Maksymilian Faktorowicz, founder of Max Factor. I've always thought that's the most amazing example of serendipity; the fact that a man who founded a hugely successful cosmetics company could just shorten both his names and thereby a derive a phrase that sounds exactly like a cosmetics company.

I replied to this on Saturday with " what do you think Max Hardcore's real name was?", but then deleted it because that's what I do when I'm drunk, and I thought people might not know who I was referring to, but seeing as @WashYourHands has posted a pic of him in another thread and announced that he died this year, I had to google and it turns out it was "Paul Little" - no wonder he used another name for his "work"

"Richard Little" would have been even better.

a true man of the 00’s with a 4inch needle dick, my guess is he was rejected from more formal routes into porn so festooned the world with images out of rape flashbacks

he also, for any uninformed readers, came up with lines which, for all their monstrous horror, are worth a producer sample dropping late in an ambient track just as a wee surprise

Russell Brand and Max Hardcore seem to have quite a bit in common, glad I wasn’t alone correlating this ¥¥axis¥¥

I used to be really into kung fu and Wu Xia ( flying people kung fu ) films when Hong Kong actually had a film industry, and there were various channels to satisfy my obsession, one of which was a market stall that had the latest HK flicks on 3rd gen VHS dubs but which also had a side line ( the cool kids nowadays would call it a "side hustle" ) in "under the counter" vids and I was chatting to the owner and he mentioned that he had the latest "Max Hardcore" and I was "????", and the owner said:

"As crack is to cocaine, Max Hardcore is to porn"


and I was, to my shame, intrigued

so he lent me a tape, promising me that I would love the "Japanese lady in a cheerleader outfit ON ROLLERSKATES" but I ended up fast-forwarding and returning it a day later saying "not my thing" and was I left wondering how Max Hardcore aka Paul Little wasn't in prison because I'm sure various crimes flashed by
