Give Peace a Chance! Announcing the OFK Tokdo Renaming Contest!
With Roh Moo Hyun having proposed “Sea of Peace” to resolve the artificial nomenclature controversy between “East Sea” and “Sea of Japan,” and in the spirit of preventing what would be the most needless conflict since the siege of Troy, it is time for us to take the next logical step and resolve the controversy between “Tokdo” and “Takeshima.” Please join me in making history, and help give peace a chance.
I open the bidding with a few suggestions:
– Petty Rocks
– Guano Rocks
– Vanker Island
– Yonsama-Jima
– Manute Bol’s Knees in the Bathtub Islands
– Kim Jong Il Nuclear Test Center Islands
– Pamela Anderson Islands
– Implant Recall Rocks
– Banzai Reef
– Evil Scientist’s Subterranean Lair Islands
Update: Seems a few other people have the same idea. A few more suggestions:
– Distraction Rocks
– Election Islands
– Solomon Islands (because Solomon would have split these babies right down the middle)
“Kim Jong Il Nuclear Test Center Islands”
I was thinking more along the lines of “Official 2007 US Nuclear Test Site/Remind Everyone Who’s Really In Charge/Quit Your Bickering And Wake Up To The Real Enemies Up North Are… Islands”
don’t know if the residents of the already-named solomon islands would be prepared to relinquish their name 😉
How about
– The Korean Wave Rocks
– Korjap demarcation Island
– The Hyperbole Rocks
– Hwang’s folly Island
– The Octagon (Korea’s ‘original’ version of the American pentagon)
– Testicles Island
-Give-it-to-the-chinese Island.
-CoreaJapanworldcup Island
-Naisenittai jima
-urinara-do
The “more-important-than-millions-suffering-and-dying-in-the-north” islets
How about
‘Don’t-put-us-in-the-same-category-with-them-Island’?
