Not the Nickleback Pickle

OK, kids, so Richard thinks my blog title is dorky.

He didn't come right out and say, "Your blog title is dorky." No, he's more subtle than that. He simply started walking around the house using his Fred Willard voice to say the following:

"That's write!" and
"I don't think so!" and
"I can't do my work!"

The benefit of knowing someone since you were teens is you can tell when that person is ridiculing you.

I know, I know. Ignore that one. But earlier in the day, my news buddy Kerry pointed out that while my blog is cool and all, it'll never catch up with that pickle that beat Nickelback for the most fans on Facebook.

LTM: Hahahahaha... oh.

Can I just say that as a fan, pickles are really hard to beat?

Well, except that one that ran for Spanish Fort mayor a few years ago. He lost pretty handily. (Richard pointed out he was one of those crazy Pineda Island Pickles, and upon reflection, I agreed. That probably was his undoing.)

We actually have a really nice Timber Creek Pickle in our church choir. There's also a Duck. And a few houses down from us live the Barefoots. (They're not Am. Indians. I asked.) Across the street are the Koors. Everyone likes to congregate at their house around 5 p.m. to unwind, discuss the day, world events...

So I'm going with the whole "can't beat 'em, join 'em" philosophy. If the title changes, it's going to be a Pickle. But perhaps I should distinguish myself. I could be the Laid-back Pickle. Or the nerdy, Has-Trouble-Coming-Up-With-Names Pickle.

I don't know.

What do you guys think? Is my blog title dorky? If so, some of you creative types send me some suggestions. I don't want it to be just my silly ole name.

P.S.
My favorite eaterie in Shreveport was The Real Pickle. Oh, and here's that Fred Willard bit.

Oooookay then. You guys are way too obsessed with "the pickle" thing.

Maybe you should imitate J.J. and entitle your blog as "Dyn-O-Mite"

Bahahaha!!!

And then Janet Jackson can and J.T. can do some sort of cleaner half-time show with the main performance being the song "Good Times"!

Don't ask, it's been a weird day for me.

side note: you need to add a 'reaction', the "say what??" reaction box!

Or.....you could add a few snaps to the current title and be "you know that's write"!! Ha Ha Ha!

Pam! Or the title could just be "Oh, Snap!"
That would rule.
As would being able to customize those little reaction options...
But I guess that's what the whole "post a comment" space is for, no? ;o)

I think your title is kinda of catchy. There are other things you can use write with such as "Write On", "Always Write", etc. But still think yours is okay.

I like the name and think it's creative. "Oh, Snap" cracks me up too or the other suggestion of adding the snaps and "you know that write." ... obviously I'm easy to please. LOL

Hey, I got a weal wed wagon!

Poor JR, he's been out numbered!

LTM said...

(but he does crack me up.)
I guess we'll stick with That's Write, then. Name changes just mix everything up anyway.
