The List for the 2008 Hurricane Season
It's about time we updated our hurricane naming conventions.
Every year we draw upon the same boring names that do little to strike fear
into the hearts of already fearful Americans. I mean, how can you honestly hope
to have Miami evacuated when a class-5 Hurricane Bill is supposed to make
landfall? You can't. It's not scary enough. They need to start naming
hurricanes after villains. You might be able to get people's attention if
Hurricane Megatron was about to slam into Georgia. Also, we can't just go
around skipping letters either. It's just wasteful. You have twenty-six letters
in the alphabet, so use them! Here is a proposed list of name that can be used
for next years hurricane season.
Apocalypse
Bowser
Cobra
Darth Vader
Emperor Palpatine
Freddy KruegerGollum
Hannibal Lecter
Ivan Drago
Joker
KHAAAAAAN!
Lex Luthor
Motherfuckin' Snakes
NegaDuck
Orochimaru
Predator
Queen Beryl
Robotnik
Skeletor
Tetsuo
Ursula
Voldemort
Wicked Witch of the West
Xerxes
Your mom!
ZombieSo what if two of them are from Star Wars? I like Star Wars.
This, of course, is only a list for one year, so that crack team over at NOAA
had better get started on the list for 2009.

Nice names. That'll definately scare people. But can you really imagine a newsreader or weatherperson saying: "Hurricane Motherfuckin' Snakes" is about to hit the Florida Keys..." Can you imagine all the phone-ins afterwards as people complain and totally ignore the hurricane warnings?!
you forgot hurricane "I'm pregnant" and hurricane "Tax Audit"
Hah haha. That's funny. Nearly snorted my coke, coke soda that is. You know, like I did that one time. Good thing you remembered to extend the 'A's in Khan and capitalized.
hahah, "glass of quit being a baby". I like to sleep with my room cold, but in the dorms, they turn the heat on at a certain point of the year, no matter what. It pretty much sucks. I really, really hope that one day there is a hurricane your mom or hurricane motherfuckin' snakes. That would make my life.
you so said Queen Beryl as a hurricane name, that is so awsome. I am all about hurricane Motherfuckin' Snakes crashing into CA. In fact that would probiliy do more good then bad cause we are desprate for water, just like indian is desprate for an AIDS vacciantion.
I'm a little sketchy on hurricane Megatron, somehow action figures don't strike that much fear in me.
