Be careful of what you name your Wi-Fi hotspot LOL.

Say you're sitting at the gate in a running 757 waiting to pull from the gate and you check to see if there's a Wi-Fi hotspot nearby when you see THIS on your cellphone...

Hotspot name: "Mobile Detonation Device"

What do you do?

Named a router "FBI Surveillance Vehicle" a few years back and was talking to a neighbor who said his wife had driven the neighborhood looking for suspicious vehicles... I changed it to "GOTCHA".

[NightWatcher]

10. Who still broadcasts their ssid?

[lpbk2713]

13. Someone in my neighborhood uses "FBI Survalence (sic) Van"

I have to grin to myself every time I see it.

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. Someone in our neighborhood does too...

And then we have a guy who uses his real first name and Stormtrooper.

So, it would be like JamesStormtrooper.

(I didn't post his real name because a search would bring up his website, and I don't think he would appreciate the attention).

(and yes, he's a Star Wars Geek)

16. I think DU may have been where I got the idea actually. nt

[Beaverhausen]

[So Far From Heaven]

19. I'm gonna have to think something up and pull this

on my red neck neighbors real soon now. I only have 3 houses close enough to get the LAN signal and nobody in their right mind drives around out here.

Except me.

[ladyVet]

21. That could have been really, really bad. By which I mean, off the wall LEO reaction bad.

I appreciate a good sense of humor, though.

Ours is something only me and my boys would appreciate, not nearly so clever as some reported here.
