    Which would be better? Running out of ideas and going with “this, that, and that other street” or letting the internet name them “Streety McStreetface III”?

    I think Canada made the right call, but also, “Streety McStreetface” would be awesome.

      Why do we always vote for somethingMcSomethingFace when asked to name stuff? It’s funny, but i never understood why we do that.

        It started with BoatyMcBoatface, as far as I know. The winner for naming what became the Sir David Attenborough.

          Yeah Boaty was the first Noun-y McNoun-face I recall too. I’m pretty sure it was just so absurd (when the other submissions were mostly serious) that it birthed the meme.
