Don’t care who buys it, or if it’s been demolished or moved or replaced or whatever. It’s still Mile High Stadium.

Facebook to Meta at least makes sense. They didn't change the product name; they just separated the company running the website from the website. And I mean, let's be real... Facebook is a stupid name for a conglomerate.

It's also the name for the force that keeps ketchup in the bottle. You've got to overcome the Heinz Field before it will come out, and that will inevitably end up with more ketchup than you wanted.

How about the Tappan Zee bridge in NYC?

What are they trying to call it?

I think they renamed it after Mario Cuomo?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago
