Suggestion for new name

I think an entirely appropriate name is:

"General Consensus"

(I also liked the different anagrams of Overclockers - "C.ock Loverrs" being by far the best!)
 
I hate to be the boring old fart here, but why is it that whenever these threads come up, a significant proportion of suggestions are related to being gay?

C.ock Loverrs
BumCrumpet
bumson
faggle
Well-Hai-Gays!

... and that's just on this page.


Is being gay really so offensive in this day and age? I can't see racist comments going down too well, even if made in jest, so why is it still socially acceptable to be "playfully" homophobic? When, if ever, will this kind of attitude dry up?

[sorry to interrupt the flow with a serious question :p]

I didn't point out C. Ockloverrs for the gay reference, but because it was the most comical anagram of Overclockers I could find.

I prefer "General Consensus" better though...
