Some British company recently purchased the majority of space in the building, so now they get to have it named after them. They've got some ****ing nerve, I says. The name has been part of the city for years, and I for one do not likes it.

That's incredibly interesting. I'm fascinated. I wonder how long it would take you to hit the ground if you jumped off the top?

 

[SuperFerret]

Named after a British company =

Named after Bruce Willis =

 

[chaseter]

What you talkin' 'bout Willis?

 

[Matt]

Everyone is still going to just call it the Sears Tower.

Everyone is still going to just call it the Sears Tower.

Exactly.

 

[chaseter]

They should call it the MC Hammer Memorial Tower.

 

[blightsbiohazar]

I say we call it "BLIGHT TOWER" in honor of me and how much better I am than everyone else.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

In my opinion it's better than being named after a failing has been company.

Look, just because that failing has been company sells the clothes that Express refused to even put on clearance and that I buy in bulk does not make them bad.

Let's see, earth's gravity pulls you at 9.81 Meters/Seconds^2, tower is 442 meters high. Average human is what? 180 pounds?

It's been too long, I dont remember the formula.

WILSON!!!
Oh... Oh, this is Willis! What kind of cocky-jock came up with that one?

 

[Gamma Ray]

I need to go to Chicago.

 

[Cunning Stunts]

I say we call it the J.C. Penny Tower.

 

[Alex The Great]

As a fellow brit I say.....


The British up rising has begun

 

[Manic]

What chu talkin' 'bout, Sears?

What you talkin' 'bout Willis?

Damnit, chase!

 

[Octoberist]

Willis Tower..pttf.

Wouldn't that just tornish the legacy of the tower? For a dude with a friggin' EGO? He, and his company, could have easily said "We're keeping the name" but no.

Named after a British company =

Named after Bruce Willis =

Son of a *****, you both beat me to it.
