A Suitable Name for this Section of the Forum ...

 

It suddenly hit me! The idea for a more apt name, for not everything said here is lunatic ...

 

How about this?

 

The Bar.

 

Not bad really? And as we all know bar talk often ranges wildly off topic just like here. And yet though fuelled by alcohol perhaps, the changes of direction are very much like a conversation down the local boozer, even if usually more enlightening ...

 

Only a thought!

How about

"ask a silly question,.........."

I don't drink or frequent bars. How about "The Drooling Drunk Zone". That's how I view the bar culture.

 

Or possibly the "Your My Best Mate, No Really Really Honestly, I Love You"  Section.

 

Or here's a thought. "The Padded Cell". Now, that's got a certain light heated yet edgy resonance.

So is Padded Cell George. Many a post and topic in this room would have a psychiatrist's bank manager rubbing his hands in anticipation.  This icon was probably designed for exclusive use here.

I have a romantic idea of UK and so I would support the original idea of George but declined to "The Pub". But as a newby I must also write that the actual name was very well defined as Steve wrote.

They had a romantic idea of Italy as well. Before i joined i mean. Anyway i do not see the need to change such a glorious institution name with something that could put it in a shade. Here we fought against Berlin Fritz and his bl++dy INNITs (or what ever) and here Adam faced danger in the form of some "Funny pictures" or "Ugly record cover" kind of madness. So i think that Padded Cell should stay. But i'm one.

Listen guys,  we can't even get Hopeless to put Padded Cell on the top banner,  so what hope of getting the name changed.

Anyway,  my vote is don't change it,  I find my Padded Cell very comforting during full moon

I like 'The Pub.' I'll spend all day putting dodgy posts on Hi-Fi Corner in the hope of being sent there.

Ah! Berlin Fritz! Those were the days. I wonder what happened to him, innit?

I don't know what happened to him. But i do remember when i joined one of his topics for the first time. Adam told me to leave and save my life!

Don't change it, Padded Cell sums this place up perfectly

Better than 'brick wall' as in 'banging my head against a'.

I think you're too late, George. Hifi Wigwam might already have copyrighted that one, and the Pub for that matter.

"How Much Snow Do you Have?" is a good title.
