Worst disc name ever?

[Lewis]

But if you speak latin it is gibberish nonsense.

I agree. Latin is gibberish nonsense. You'd think the conjugations would be hard enough to drive a student batty, but then you get sentences like Dulce et decorum est. Est what?? Apparently there is enough packed into the connotation of those four words to complete a thought for a Latin speaker, but damn. At least that's what a friend who speaks Latin claims. Maybe he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Tacebo, tu!

 

[ejvogie]

Wahoo. I mean, I know it's a sport fish or something, but really?

 

[ranger]

Totally agree. I'm buying a stack just to piss off the sissy hippy douches.

But Sinus is clearly the worst name. There's no defending it.

I still think "Tern" is dumb...I just don't like it. But I do like the disc and I throw them a lot.

It's a bird in the animal theme, and describes the disc pretty well. I thought it was pretty smart myself

Yeah I get what it is and how it fits in....I just don't like it because it seems gimmicky to me. At the end of the day, I could care less about what anything is named tho. Just throw the discs you like and that's all that matters.

Tern is not bad

Like you can tell someone you're throwing a tern and it sounds okay. Telling someone that you bag a proxy sounds waaaay dumber.

 

[ThrowBot]

STD.

^^ Yes! A friend of mine found one of these on the course earlier this year. Fortunately there was no phone number on it, imagine having to make that call. ("Hello? Yes. Listen, I think I've got your STD...")

 

[dtuba]

Graboide

Sounds like something you need to treat by applying cream to it.:gross:

 

[BrotherDave]

The wolf isn't a bad disc.

 

[ian.]

Whale .

 

[Aim For The Chains]

All of them. Terrible game terrible names terrible players.

 

[glassila]

Wombat is pretty lame.

 

[DiscChainBasket18]

Surge

 

[Jimb]

Never even heard of several of these.

I voted Apple just because it seemed to make even less sense, and sounds lamer, than others.

Or is it named after Newton and his "discovery" of gravity? I didn't look, but if it has very little glide, it kind of makes sense.

 

[ThrowBot]

Whale .

The Whale used to confuse the heck out of me. Back when the Wraith came out, a lot of the folks I played with called it the 'whale'. It took me a bit to realize that there actually was a Whale in production (not just a derogatory name for my sweet, sweet wraiths).

 

[Enforcerj027]

I voted Apple just because their phones are ghetto. 2 strokes off if you chuck yours in the trash can on the way out of the park

 

[Dr. Bogey]

Jack the Ripper. I gather that it's a weed reference, but even aside from that naming a disc after a serial killer is in very poor taste. I don't like Discmania's names for much the same reason.

But Sinus is pretty bad. It's hard to out-terrible that one. Although it'd be kinda cool-weird to make a theme out of it. Sinus, Adenoid, Tonsil, Pharynx, Epiglottis.
