Great Band Names



The Scissor Sisters played a secret gig at Mercury Lounge as... Queef Latina.

Love it! I bet it would be super good time seeing them live.

...except I couldn't ever get past saying out loud the first word of their secret band name. It ranks highly on my list of words that gross me out. Right up there with "moist". Anyone else care to share with us words that gross you out?

I have to say I get grossed out (although not in a squeamish way) by anyone using the word "soul". As in:

"I feel it in my soul."
"You have a kind soul."
"He's an old soul."

Yuck. Always makes me think the person I'm speaking to is a phony. The only acceptable use is when discussing Sam Cooke.

Do you feel the same way about "soulless," Dave?

fanniepak said...

(That was a genuine question. Don't let the "Dave" fool you.)

Crescent said...

They are amazing in concert. That's A.

B. I hate the word dump.

fanniepak said...

Ha! I just read on Gawker that Anderson Cooper was spotted at this show...

quickdraw said...

He must have a good soul, that Anderson.

Alvy said...

I don't feel the same way about "soulless", which I think has a specific meaning - as opposed to "soul", which is a catchall for hippie nonsense.

Lover. hahahaha My piano teacher used to make up words to my classical pieces to help me with phrasing and one that she always used was "he is my LOVer...he is my LOVer". It mortified me.

Also, I hate the word "prone" and "load".
