    Beoterms

    As a result of my musings on the thread "my first time". I thought I would start something off. Create your own beoterms. As a hint, anything you can stick bio in front of, you can probably also stick beo there too:

    Here are a few to start people off

     

    1. Beophysical

    2. Beological

    3. Beoplasma

    4. Beocompatible

    5. Beodegradeable

    Lets see what people come up with.

    Actually, I think Bangsung pretty much sums it up right now.

    Perhaps you are expressing too much  BeoCriticism?

    Or am I being BeoFooled?

    Re: Beoterms

    I do not wish to hi-jack the thread...but let me roll back over something here.  Dude1's liberties with the nomenclature can be, and have been, seen as amusing, annoying, even innovative.  But I answer the phone at work a lot, and there are enough B&O owners out there (and I expect here) who aren't even certain what the name of the product they own is...and I can state firmly that when they tell me they are having trouble with a "Beo 4" that they bought, they are just as likely to mean a BeoVision 4 or a BeoSound 4 as they are the remote control (and don't get me started on BeoLab 4's).  So one may be artistic, even Avant Garde if that is the intent...but don't expect everyone to 'get it'...and don't be surprised at confusion when it crops up.

     

    Rant over...back on topic.

     

    Anyone here on Xbox Live can send  a friend request to BeoBoy....  Geeked  No, I wasn't brave enough to put that on the license plate on my car...that's B&O Guy.

    From time to time I've heard the brand referred to as Bang & Awfulson. Freudian slip that is relevant sometimesWhistle

    I've heard the brand name mispronounced as "Bang and Awfulson". Do they know something we don't? Whistle

    BeoPants:

    A term used to aptly describe some current products that do not meet customers expectations and perfom adequately, thus leading to BeoPenury resulting in the urgent prescription of BeoProzac.
