alcohol really helps. I didn’t dare to post this before: My grade in school has a homepage where we post latest news about parties we organize, post pictures and discuss in forums. We used to call us crazybunch , but this is 10 years ago and we’re way too old for this now. (happy, funny,crazy sounds so childish) We need a really cool name now and the domain should be available. please all you creative minds in here, help us! THANX IN ADVANCE, DOPERS ---

“Old Farts”? Okay, maybe that lacks a little something. “Mature Farts”? “Cool Old Farts”? ---

@ SparrowHawk: That’s not too bad! Thanx @ White Lightning: You don’t have to know us. The name doesn’t have to really fit. It should just be funny and somehow cool without using ‘cool’, heh. Some more ideas? ---

Yay, some good ones among these. But don’t forget we don’t wanna make fun of ourselves. So they should be funny but still cool. Not like Rubber Chicken Gang 😉 ---

How about “People Who Cannot Use The English Language, So They Substitute Numbers & Symbols Inappropriately”. This is the Straigt Dope. We don’t cotton to “Leetspeak” and its kin. :mad: ---

And just WHAT, may I ask, is wrong with “Happy?” How old are you that you care about what other people think? Maybe “Crazybunch” is now retro-cool or whatever. I say, stick with it and hope that it holds up over time, and if it doesn’t, you’ll at least have a common topic about which you can all laugh. ---

**Bosda** , I guess this is just a “preemptive strike”, since I can’t see any “leetspeak” in here. **Happy** , no offense. 😉 We’re old enough that we don’t care about what other people think. But in this case we have to, because it’s like a brand. It’s hard to explain & understand. We organize parties and the name of the organizer should sound cool. Anyway I guess it’s better we just forget it, because I can’t explain and I don’t want to bother Bosda anymore. ---

@ G-Spot: The Unit? Sounds good 😉 Kidding, that’s good, but there should be a group,bunch,grade whatever in it, since we’re not really a company, hehe. @ Jpeg Jones: I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one thinking that this is ridiculous. And for those who don’t know yet, I hate leetspeak, too. I did it under the influence of alcohol, right after I robbed the bank and a short time before I killed my wife. Thanks (no x!!!) for all the good suggestions. I will tell you (If you want) as soon as we have decided.
