You think the one of the real Ramones would have spent much more time on the cgi script?

The punchline is so unexpectedly obvious. Heh.

Who's the pinhead that made this thing up? The least they coulda done was change my name from 'Steve' to 'Stevie.' Sheesh....

If you're looking for a re-name or improvement,
I think you'd need the Malcolm Mclaren generator!

I got Andrew Ramone. To honest I expected something a little more creative. Then again, I never expected something like Eaglebauer, Tom Roberts or Riff Randell.

see, they took the whole lame "name generator" (tolkein, wu-tang, etc.) concept, which is basically played out, and continued it to its logical conclusion.

i'll admit i expected it (what else could it do?), but it's still funny. and yes, creative.

There used to be a website called Twernt. At one point, the guy running it put up a "Twernt name generator." You would put in your name, and it would respond "Your Twernt name is TWERNT."

Actually, I think the real conclusion will be a "Your Name Generator", where you input your name and then it tells you your Your Name, viz., your name.

It doesn't have to be played out, but it needs to be a little more creative than just adding the the last name of the band members to your first name.

I dub myself Gabba Gabba Hey Rock 'n' Baby Ramone. That's my Ramone's name generator.

It gets all of the Ramones Names right... that's pretty cool. But it makes you put "Tom Erdelyi" rather than "Thomas Erdelyi" eh.

Heh heh

Any girls out there called Joan, 'cause Joan Ramone would be pretty damn cool

i'm having a donna ramone day, which works well if you have to yell at your isp. not unlike yelling at an overeducated drunken mob and incorporating their response into your preformance.
next i plan to go all shonen knife/cibo matto and bring all my complaints back to food and pretend english is not my prime language.
