If you started a gang, what would you name it?

[Wetzelbill]

I'm torn between the "Christ Punchers" and the "Grape Slushies." Although, you can be certain that if I did start a gang it would be huge in a few years. Just like my presidential campaign.

[DarkTirade]

1. I couldn't stop at just a name...

I'd have to have a theme and everything.

If I was going to go for a post-apocalyptic theme, I'd probably go with 'Post Punks', combinging the futuristic 'cyberpunk' term with 'post apocalyptic'. If I was going for a dark gothy theme it'd be a dark gothy name like "Shadow Stalkers" or "The Ravens".

More to come as I think of them.

[Wetzelbill]

3. you are dark

:)
I like Shadow Stalkers. Good name.

[DarkTirade]

6. I had a nifty idea a while back for making post-apocalyptic armor.

It came to me after I had a car accident and I was looking at the damaged bits of metal on the outside of my car... and I thought, "I could totally make armor out of this hood!" :P

I've got plenty of leftover leather from when I was dabbling in leatherwork, so if I ever get around to it I just might go to a junkyard and buy some car panels and cut 'em up for post apocalyptic armor.

[Rhythm]

24. A friend of mine in the SCA makes plate armor out of highway signs

He buys the old green highway signs from the state when they take them down because of name changes and stuff, then uses them to make sets of plate armor for his SCA fighter group... he's been doing it for years, and they are tough as hell.

[DarkTirade]

26. Yep. And a helluva lot cheaper than buying shiny new steel plates.

:)

[AlCzervik]

The Ponies Of Darkness indeed... :headbang:

[DarkTirade]

42. Heh... Metallica's great for learning how to play or just jamming.

[ScreamingMeemie]

84. It wasn't a bad response either.

I saw it and wasn't affected by it.

[grannylib]

36. POW - Preserve Our Wildflowers.

Needless to say, it would be a very non-violent gang. Armed only with field guides and trash bags. :-)

[Oeditpus Rex]

38. 'The Gang'

I'd operate what I'd call "The Operation," in which I'd select a victim and threaten to beat him up if he paid me the so-called protection money. Four months later, I'd start another operation, which I'd call "The Other Operation," in which I'd select another victim and threaten not to beat him up if he didn't pay me. One month later, I'd hit upon "The Other Other Operation," in which I'd threaten the victim that I'd beat him up if he didn't pay me.

This would be the turning point.

Oh, and I'd also be convinced that I was being watched by a giant hedgehog whom I'd call "Spiny Norman."





Dinsdale!

[madeline_con]

39. Boo Round

There's this local gang who call themselves "800 Bound" because they hang at the 800 Apartments. Mostly local punks who sell drugs outside a convenience store across the street from the apartments.


On the fence by the convenience store someone's spray painted the gang name, but it looks like it says "Boo Round".

73. I did, kinda, at my last job

For some reason they grouped a bunch of us 40+ women together in pods and we called ourselves "Camp Menopause." I guess if we wanted to get nasty we could have called ourselves the "Homicidal Menopausals." :shrug:
