to think that user names that are spoonerisms should mean something?

There are a lot of spoonerised sweary names about at the moment.

PatFenis and BettySwollocks get a big tick because they suggest proper names

I love buppy's name, especially as it takes something as twee as cupcakes and bunting and completely subverts the concept.

CunningStunt gets a double tick because it forms two new words.

What I don't get are the names which don't create something else - along the lines of ShuckingFit.

Oh, bollocks. Meant to post that on the rude plants thread.

MardyBra · 18/05/2012 17:47

Sorry Kato. That is a fail imo.

There are no such words as Swatrick or Payze afaik.

I just googled 'feak' to see if it's a real world (I know weeble is) and it told me it is slang for 'fecal matter' Confused

So I guess my name is really 'FecalMatterRolyPolyToy' Blush

word, not world. Tsk.

I loved weebles. For some reason I found myself singing "Weebles wobble but they don't fall down" to the kids recently. They didn't look impressed.

Am loving the arguments for my name being a spoonerisms...considering a change to Brelicitys Feasts now though OhTheHugeManatee Grin

BustyRare · 18/05/2012 21:09

Maryz, I don't want any danglers thank you very much....

MardyBra · 19/05/2012 09:37

If Rusty is going by spelling then it should be BustyRear, but if it's pronunciation (which spoonerisms usually are iirc) then it should be BustyRare.

I think BustyRear sounds more intriguing though.
