Loerke reviewed Morningwood in Worst Portmanteau Bands (Real or Invented):

There's nothing remotely clever about this one that I can see. No innuendo, no subtlety. Hard to believe that the major label that signed them couldn't have come up with something better.

Loerke reviewed The House That Gloria Vanderbilt in Worst Portmanteau Bands (Real or Invented):

Extra credit for defying the normal spelling of "bilt." The best name of all these bands.

Loerke reviewed Paulbots in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

Strictly descriptive (try posting a criticism of Ron Paul online and you'll be praying for spam-bots to besiege you instead) but not that witty.

Loerke reviewed Pauliticians in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

I can't imagine that the young crusaders for Ron Paul want to identify themselves as mere politicians.

Loerke reviewed The Remnant in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

Pompous name that Ron Paul prefers, on analogy with Jewish survivors of centuries of persecution. Because that's exactly what these long-suffering Ron Paul supporters have been going through.

Loerke reviewed Paulheads in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

Apparently the term preferred by Fox News, on analogy with "Deadheads." I suppose it's plausible for two reasons: many Paul supporters seem genuinely anti-war, and Paul's presidential campaign is also genuinely dead.

Loerke reviewed Paulistas in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

Popular among some adherents of Ron Paul, on the analogy to Sandinistas. Who wouldn't want to consider him- or herself a young sexy Latin revolutionary? Unfortunately, however, the only real resemblance is that young males trumpet their support of both causes in the hope of getting laid.

Loerke reviewed Paultards in Names for Ron Paul Supporters:

Wonkette coined the term (or at least popularized it). Despite the undeniable reduction of intelligence that comes with going to a Ron Paul rally, the term is grossly unfair to those with cognitive disabilities.
