One concession we can grant LASK in the street fight is that BASK as an acronym is derivative of LASK. If that bugs them, it makes sense. "Skull Krew" is a cool moniker and BASK didn't invent it.

Should we change the acronym to something else? Does the name even have to have a cool acronym? Should we represent "Bay Area" or "Northern California?" Any thoughts, suggestions, objections, or opinions?

they should think of the "SK" as a tribute to their fandom. the appropriation honors their primacy as collectors on the board.

but dey gots no respect, so dey gets none.

yeah, i always thought BASK was kinda a rip off.

open to suggestions.....

Pogue's Posse has a nice ring to it.

ummmm..... i'm terribly afraid it would get mispronounced.

Nah, I always thought LASK were Muton's Minions.

LOL.

Thats like saying the mongols shouldnt have MC on their patches , just because the Hells Angels did first. A Skull Krew is a skull Krew, we all are derived from SKULL brain, right? Therefore were are a crew or "krew" of Skull Brain. If anything it should be Skull.Brain.Krew. So, unless LASK is now saying they invented the Skull Brain name first, before Ramos or SB, they can kiss my ass.

But IM open to any GOOD suggestions.

true......true.....

...hey jeremy...my last name is Ramos too!...juts thought i'd get that out there...

So are you claiming rights , as a descendent(sp) of RAmos?

no...i just think it's funny that Isaac and i have the same last name...

BATE - Bay Area Toy Enterprise
BASS - Bay Area Sofubi Sissies

You should keep BASK, otherwise we won't have anything to fight about and I won't be able to work on my anemic post count. Just 2 more till 400!!!

I agree, u should keep BASK - but I am glad to see that you guys are acknowledging the lineage of the name!

PS. If u do decide to change it, I think Pogue's Posse is an excellent choice ... in a 70's "Are u being served" double entendre flashback sense.

wait a second.....Richard Ramos........??

aren't you supposed to be in jail?



oh......wait. that's Ramirez.

...man...i get that shit all the time...let's not get into stories about jail and shit...we'll talk at the SDCC or on the phone if ya want...

...nightstalker...

So, on the whole BASK thing, I think I made my point a couple of posts above, but if LASK ( and not anyone who isnt in either area and whom it dosent concern) has a problem with us using BASK, then we'll change it, but just for LASK.

PLus, I thought of a couple more

B.ay A.rea T.oy L.ords or BATL
California Only Collecting Krew
the Wolves (we could all wear those cool hipster wolf T's)

I thought the LASK vs BASK thing was all in good fun and joking around and whatnot. Why change it? We're all members of a bigger group anyway.

Thats how I feel, but I dont want to be " unoriginal" and I think some people are thinking LASK is really offended or something.

who the fuck is joking?

we need a straight faced Scott emoticon

Really? Who would be offended by that?



OK, besides Scott who would be offended by that?

Does everyone in LASK live in LA?

LASK (the OG Skull Krew, accept no imitations) is NOT offended.

I can't believe you guys would even think of changing it!!!

Good, end of story.
