*sigh*borg

The latest meme-y thing doing the interweb rounds these days is Cyborg Names. Yeah, everywhere you see stuff like Electronic Robotic Infiltration Construct (ERIC). Ofcourse they'll be the first ones with their backs against the wall when the revolution comes. (First person to guess the reference correctly gets a chocolate!)

I thought it might be interesting to have a look at a few.

To satisfy my narcissistic urges, my name goes first:


Hm. Not bad. But not good enough. I want more harm-level.
Ah! much better. IMO, if you are borg, might as well be bad-ass noh?

Baccha, it turns out, is pretty dangerous as well:
KP is some sort of nocturnal owl:

Krishna. Well I though this is a better fit for Baccha, but Cyborg Names are *always* true. So Krishna is actually:
Gidwani diagnoses destruction. Apparently.

My bro has quite a short name. So he got stuck with:
That was quite lame. So I decided to upgrade him:
Better.

But ofcourse, short names aren't always bad. My favourite one puts it rather succinctly:
I'm rather looking forward to the time when robots (we're the robots) take over the world. My only concern is whether they'll be musically literate. Till then, do keep turning :)

Avi was "Artificial Versatile Individual". Sort of like AI! Sorry man, can't put that in - it's too cool n might make my Cyborg Name look bad :P.

Oh yeah, the overall coolest name went to Joydeep: Juggernaut Optimized for Yelling, Dangerous Exploration and Efficient Peacekeeping. (Yelling! Awesome!)

And the overall lamest name went to Rylan: Robotic Ytterbium Logical Assassination Neohuman. (I mean - WTF is that?)
