For $10,000, would you...

[Lautremont]

(men) change your name to John Rumsfeld, or (women) to Condeleeza Ice?

Accepting the money would mean agreeing, at pain of ruinous lawsuit, to keep the name for the rest of your life, legally and in every other way.

(And yes, this offer is purely hypothetical.)

[NewWaveChick1981]

1. No.

That'd cost at least a million, tax free. :P

[Ohio Joe]

2. Not a chance

I don't think I would do that for any amount of money. I could just never see taking a joke name.

[Random_Australian]

3. Sure! I live in Australia - no-one gives a fuck.

[LynneSin]

4. You need to add a few more 0000000 on the end

Then I might consider it.

I mean, if I made the league change I'd need enough money so I could move to a remote part of the world and live the life of luxury in a world where people don't on television and have no idea who these people are.

That could be quite expensive

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Nope.

Never.......under any circumstances!

:puke:

[Mojambo]

6. What's in a name?

I'd do it, but 10 grand seems a little light.

$50,0000 would make me much more likely, and $100,000 would seal the deal.

[taterguy]

7. Absolutely

A name is just a name. I'd either give the proceeds to politicians who could change the system or indulge myself.

It's not that I'm willing to sell my soul, I just think a name is superficial and meaningless

[Broken_Hero]

8. nope, ten grand isn't enough for me....nt

[xchrom]

9. pay me up-front.

[Gatchaman]

10. For enough money, I'll change my name to Ronald Fucking Reagan

with the "Fucking" as the actual middle name. $10,000 wouldn't be enough compensation for the general hassle (let alone social implications) of changing ones name though.

[ComerPerro]

17. Who the fuck are you?

"I'm Ronald Fucking Reagan".

:rofl:

[datasuspect]

11. for 5g

i will tattoo it on my ass.

[ComerPerro]

18. I've been playing WoW too much. I read that as "five gold"

and I thought, "damn, that's not very much"

[datasuspect]

23. nah, it's gangsterese for "grand"

[ComerPerro]

24. lol, yeah, I realized it was "grand" right after. But that's how I first

read it

[Kali]

12. I would think about it.

[reyd reid reed]

13. Nope

I've grown attached to my name over the years...I've had it for a long time. Plus, $10,000 wouldn't do much; it'd be gone to bills within a week or two and then what?

I'd be stuck.

Nope. Not worth it.

Besides, I couldn't bear introducing myself as 'Condoleeeeeeeeza'.

:scared:

[ghostsofgiants]

14. Probably, yeah.

Changing my name from what it is now to John Rumsfeld would probably make a lot of people here plotz, too, which would just be even more amusing.

[wildhorses]

15. not for 10k...add some zeros and yep, I would do it

what was it the bard said:

something about

a roses by any other name
would still smell as sweet

sumpin like dat

[ComerPerro]

19. Add some zeroes and a one in front of that and we'll do it

to paraphrase Bender the Robot from Futurama (aka Bender Bending Rodriguez)

[wildhorses]

22. sure and every day can be Halloween

:bounce:

[u4ic]

16. Nope

It only works out to $11,264.64 CAN.

Maybe in the days when $10,000 US worked out to be $1,000,000 CAN...

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. We were just sighing and reminiscing about the "good ole exchange days" on

our last trip to Bayfield. :hi:

[Zavulon]

21. I'd need high seven figures for that.

I have a price, but it's way above a lousy ten grand.
