Thread: Big Ben to be renamed as Elizabeth Tower

  1. #1

    Default Big Ben to be renamed as Elizabeth Tower

    Ah, Europe. The continent of riches and total foreignness. First comes Northwest Europe. Next comes United Kingdom. Then comes England. Then comes London. Finally comes Big Ben. Or, Elizabeth Tower.

    Apparently, the famous clock tower Big Ben, surviving after 153 years, is going to be renamed the Elizabeth Tower in honour of Queen Elizabeth of any number.

    Thoughts on this?

    No.....No...just...No

    (I'm not bias just because my name is Ben and my usual IGN is Big Ben)

    That's not a good idea.

    That's silly. That would be like renaming the statue of liberty to the statue of Obama.
    I'm so retro, you don't even know. I bet you've never even heard of me.

    Just walk away, make it easy on us both.
    Just walk away, there was never any hope.
    Just walk away, you already know the deal.
    Just walk away, pretend that none of this was real.

    I dont see why they should. The queen is known well enough. It is like the sears tower that was renamed willis tower I believe. I dont see the point.

    Keep it the way it is, nobody likes the name of a historic landmark being changed...
    So what if you can see the darkest side of me?
