Here be my dilemma, all you jive turkeys:
I'm going to be attending the local university next year. Which means that I will be living back home for at least a year (please, pray for me). But home is about a twenty minute drive to the university. There are three of us in the house (me, Marge and Farge) and only two vehicles. SO. I decided that instead of having to rely on my parents driving me to school (HELL NO), I would be an adult and buy my own car. SO I DID. That's right, this gal (that's me, by the way...I'm this gal...in case you were wondering or something), went and got herself a hold of someone else's wheels and made them her own.
Aye, look at that shine. She's a 'bute, isn't she? Or he. See? THIS is my dilemma. I don't know who this car is. I've had it for a month now and it has no name. Now, maybe that guy from America didn't mind that he rode though the desert on a horse with no name, but there is no way I want to keep driving through town in a car with no name. It's just so... wrong. All of the vehicles that I've ever driven have had a name. First there was the Evergreen, a '95 forest green Plymouth Voyager that I drove all throughout high school. I even bought a chrome license plate cover that had an LCD screen on it so that when I stepped on the brake, the message "EVERGREEN 4 LIFE!!" would start scrolling across the screen. I know what your thinking and, hells yes, I was one of, no, the coolest people in that school. How could I not be popular with wheels like that? After the Evergreen was retired, along came the Blue Pearl, a 2001 light blue Caravan. I know, I get all the best cars.
I came up with both of those names. The Evergreen and the Blue Pearl. I knew those vans. Like, I knew them. They weren't just cars. Heck. No. They were an extension of me. It was like I myself had wheels. That would actually be really cool... ANYWHO. That little car up there? This gals car? I got nothin'. Nada. Zilch. Names have been going through my mind as of late, but nothing is sticking. THIS IS WHERE YOU COME IN. I figured if anyone could help me sort this out, it would be you wonderful, amazing, stupendous people of the internets. And no, I totally wasn't trying to suck up to you all right then. Pfft. I would never suck up to anybody. Do I look like a vacuum to you?
So, if you guys decide to help me out, here's a little bit on info about the car:
Year: 2001
Make and model: Chrysler Neon
Colour: Brownish gold... or goldish brown. It changes with the light.
What are the names that I've already thought of?
- Neo (I'm SUPER CREATIVE)
- Nugget (Get it? Because it's GOLD... well, sort of gold)
- Bobbert The Brown
- Shit bucket
- Battlestar Craptica
- The Golden Girl
- ROFLCOPTER
- Edna
- Gilbert
- Pudding Pop
- Brown Chicken, Brown Cow
- ChaFUNK (...this is also what I call chipmunks)
I dunno. What do you guys think? Pick your favourite from the list of my names or let me know your suggestions by leaving me a comment! If I don't find a name for this thing, I'm going to have to start riding Blongster everywhere.
Ah... I miss my Super Chevy. But today word came out that I will have a budget for a modest replacement, I'm thinking Super Chevy the Second?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, back to you, off the list I like Nugget. It's cute. And off the top of my head... I'll get back to you, hold on.
You could name it Jack Sparrow, but only so you could sing THIS IS THE (insert car part here) OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!!!!! For example: THIS IS THE TRUNK OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW! or THIS IS THE TAILPIPE OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW! See what I did there?
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, the only thing I can think of when I see that car is "Cheryl."
ReplyDeleteGilbert and Nugget work well too, though.
THIS IS THE DRIVESHAFT OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!
ReplyDeleteOh my jeebus, ahahahahaa!
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS THE DIPSTICK OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!
Hahahaaaa YES! And when you take it in for service, and they ask what you need done, you can be like "THIS IS THE TIRE OF CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW. A TIRE SO FLAT, I CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR!"
ReplyDeleteOk. Ok ok ok. I will try out both Nugget and Captain Jack for the next few days and see how they work. And maybe something else if another name is suggested. Either way, this car is totally getting its own theme song.
ReplyDeleteI still think you should stick with the color theme … green, blue … DO EEEEET!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, Captain Jack FTW. You can also pimp out the back window area with Jack Daniel's paraphenalia. And call the driver's seat the Crow's Nest. And call left and right STARBOARD AND PORT!!! OMG I LOVE IT.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Can you overfeed the fish down there so they die? I think no because I really tried.
ReplyDeleteHOLY CRAP YOU CAN FEED THE FISH I NEVER NOTICED THAT.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm getting more and more sold on this Captain Jack thing.
THIS IS THE TRUNK

HE'S THE PAUPER OF THE ROAD
THE JESTER OF THE TURNPIKE
TO THE MECHANIC'S GARAGE
WHAT LIES IN STORRRRRRRRRRRRE
AND YES, YOU CAN FEED THE FISH!
ReplyDeleteThey will follow your cursor everywhere and you can feed them up to ten bunches of flakes at a time. They are fat asses, so they will just keep eating no matter how much you feed them.
When I'm feeling evil, I'll gather them all into one corner and then quickly drop the flakes in the opposite corner. I'm so mean sometimes.
What about an italian name for your car?
ReplyDeleteOh by the way, in italian you would call it a SHE. :P
Methinks I've decided on Captain Jack! Or just Jack or Cap'n for short.
ReplyDeleteThe two minivans that I drove previously were definitely shes (she's? bah, shes) especially Blue Pearl. Them ladies had a lot of of junk in the trunk.
But I like naming this car as a he. I feel like a rebel. The majority of the residents who live on my road are of Italian decent, so as long as word doesn't get out to them that I refer to my car as a He, I think I'm safe ^_^
