Facebook to Meta at least makes sense. They didn't change the product name; they just separated the company running the website from the website. And I mean, let's be real... Facebook is a stupid name for a conglomerate.

It's still called "the Gulf of Mexico."

Some dumb bully gave it a dumb nickname and they're acting like he legally changed it's birth certificate.

What did I miss? I haven't heard anything about a new name.

Trump tried to rename the gulf of Mexico to the gulf of America.

Don’t care who buys it, or if it’s been demolished or moved or replaced or whatever. It’s still Mile High Stadium.

I came here specifically to comment this. Not even a Chicagoan but it will always be Sears Tower. I don't give a shit who owns the naming rights.

Apparently Acrisure Stadium in Pennsylvania.

If someone calls it X I’ll call it twitter but if somebody still is on there calling it Twitter then I’ll insist on calling it X. You can’t fool yourself, you are still on Elon Musk’s X.

You know, I was going to shit on you because it was a completely different stadium. But then I realized I often call the new home of the NY Giants Giants Stadium.

Right? Like, in my heart, the Mets play at Shea. They can put the stadium on the frigging moon, the Mets play at Shea!
