Scooped: Renaming the Swine Flu

Share

A friend of a friend put together a hilarious and clever site called Rename the Swine Flu. Looks like my blog post earlier this week was no match for Zach’s fun site. I think his site’s popularity is all because of his logo. How cute is that?! (Well, okay there’s a lot more going on than just the cute logo!)

Here are just a few of the submissions that I give my professional namer’s official stamp of approval:

Mad Sow Disease
The Baconic Plague
Porky’s Revenge
SowMenella
Swinus infection
Snout Gout
Pigpendemic
