Network Names...The Little Things That Amuse Me

Jun 30, 2008 23:41

Plainly stated, wi-fi is a wonderful thing. Specifically, leeching free wi-fi off of your neighbors’ unsecured networks is fantastic. Obviously, everyone does the same thing when they’re not at home and I find that one of the most interesting qualities of the whole business is that you get to see the names, ranging from completely uninteresting to random and/or downright hilarious, that people give their networks. I’ve taken to compiling a list of the more interesting ones. (What else was I supposed to do while sitting in a Boston Starbucks which, coincidentally enough, did NOT have free wi-fi, for 7 hours waiting for potential hires to come in?) Feel free to comment to add yours to the list.

Sex Machine [The inspiration for the list. Thank you, Alex. ^_^]
Fabulon
Bathroom [Does someone really have router in the can?]
Tootsie
LookAtThe45PrettyColors!
Hot Pocket Extreme
XXX_Pimp [It’s hardly pimpin’ when it’s a secured network]
Unemployed
Tina Turner
Barfly

EDIT: After 7 hours and two extremely caffeinated beverages in Starbucks, I got to spend another 2 hours waiting for a VERY late train. That’s where I dug these up.
