a question for illoggers....is "boys behaving badly" the most chutiya name for a shop or what?

I mean seriously?

Who's this store targeted at? If it is for the homosexual population of karachi, ok fine. No problem. Good name. Good luck and tons of prosperity for you.

But if this name is chosen for regular guys, then boy oh boy... what a corny aholish name for a shop!

So LOOP is a fellow chowkie that has been posting ilogs promoting his/her shop (nothing wrong with that, quite inventive actually). But the name of the shop is "Boys behaving Badly".

So what do you say fellow illogers.., what do you think of the name of the shop?

hmm.. quite interesting... Hurricane, call me a nitpicker, but someone with the logico-linguisitic prowess you evidently posses should really be saying ".. if someone insists on trying to insult the Prophet, [he cannot]".

The qualification may seem pedantic, but I think brings home your central point more forcefully-- that the insult is a figment of imagination re-inforced inly by the amount of attention given it.

Nice reading your lucid style. Did you used to have an earlier avatar here on chowk when I was more active?
