People Are Strange

In the words of Monty Python, the world today seems absolutely crackers*. Just today the news came through that Apple either screwed up or is using it's rather massive power for evil, and tracking iPhone users. Needless to say, this is "not cool" as the kids say, and clearly the best way to raise awareness and protest a computer company's use of your phone as a computer is create a band name for it. Or, better yet, a game!

To create your own personal Band Name Of The Day Apple Screwed Up, just select a word from each list, and combine them to form a band name!

List One (noun)
Apple
Network
Cellular
iPhone
Software
Cell Tower

List Two (bridge word)(optional)
Software
Programing
Uplink
Tracking
GPS
Administration/administrative
Nation

List Three (singular or plural)
Fiasco
Screwup
Spy
Treachery
Oops
Fuckup
Disaster
Mistake

And there you have it! You can create all sorts of neat band names this way, such as iPhone Upling Oops for a pop band, or The Cell Tower Administration for electronica (like Daft Punk). If you wanted to go a bit more punk rock with a tech twist, Apple Uplink Fuckup would be grand. Go wild, give us the best ones in the comments, or add new words to the list!


*The rest of that song is rather patently offensive, but we like it anyhow.
