True story
So I went on a date with a guy who said he did improv and sketch in NYC. He told me about this group he was forming and they were trying to pick a name. He told me that he had the greatest name. Ready for it? Penny ala haha. He then made the mistake of asking me my opinion of the name.
We never went out again.

I recently found a note, tucked safely away in my belongings, that I discovered, a tiny note scribbled on the back of a receipt (from CVS). I remember that at one point, I had written down the name of what I thought was a great name for an improv group and discovered how shitty it actually was.
The name?
Royal Flush.

Fresh Concepts was the name of my college troupe, named after a neon sign in the cafeteria that would often be left on all night, as a beacon in the night. The next year of our existance, the sign went down when a new contractor operated the cafeteria and then we just had a pseudo retarded happy happy happy name. As if the name came from a Midwestern suburban church potluck.
i said it before, but i have to repeatedly admit i was part of a group called The Sketchy Players.
it is an awful name because 1) it was cumbersome and embarassing to say; 2) it was a pun that wasn't even really a pun ("sketchy" means both like, sketch comedy, and also, someone who is a shadowy character. GET IT?) 3) it was similar enough in structure to the name of the other comedy group on campus as to seem a half-assed rip-off.
the first awful name i cam eup with was Sweater Puppies, and i actually kind of like it. does this mean i have bad taste.
