Tuesday Top Ten: Wireless Network Names

Many months ago, I made the switch from BlackBerry to iPhone, which has generally made my life more fulfilling.  As every iPhone user probably knows, whenever you are away from your home wireless network, a list of available wireless networks pops up whenever you access the internet, email, Facebook, or anything else that might be able to be accessed through a WiFi network.  Most of the network names are benign, like Bob's House, 2WIRE123, or internet.  However, every now and then, you come across a crude, odd, or hilarious network name.  My theory is that the advent of the iPhone has encouraged people to do this, knowing that every passerby with an iPhone will have the network name pop up (for instance, the one below beginning with "Fish" pops up at a very busy L station).  If that is the case, well done.  If not, then some people are just freaks.  Here are some of the better network names I have seen or have been told about.  For the ones that were sent to me, the person who sent them to me is in parentheses after the name of the network.  And because I fucking love you, there are more than ten.  These are in alphabetical order.


1.  be fucked back (Trashton)

2.  Beer4U
3.  BONERTIME
4.  Fish_Taco_Taint_Anus
5.  Fuckingandpunching (Trashton)
6.  House or rats

7.  PenguinCastle
8.  Poo Town
9.  PrettyFlyForAWiFi
10.  TheCumDump (Can Can)
11.  TheHAUSofGAGA
12.  Throat Yogurt



Have you come across any funny wireless network names?  If so, feel free to share them, unless you're weird about sharing, in which case, continue playing Super Mario Brothers without letting anyone else have a turn, dick.
