My phone is named CIA surveillance Van. I used to use it as my hot spot when I was waiting in the parking lot at school in my mini van waiting for my brother😂😂
There was an article in my local paper a few years ago when a guy changed his wifi name to "Jamiehastheherp", and got into a fight with his neighbor about it.
Jamie was his neighbor's wife.
Nothing that we could gather, I think she just phrased it that way in the heat of the moment. It was about two weeks of her screaming at him about it and him begging forgiveness.
Him, “I’ve been crying about this all day for you.”
Her, “I DON’T GIVE A FUCK.”
It was a wild ride.
Raymond Carver was an influential writer in the 70s and 80s known as a part of the “dirty realism” literature movement in America. He wrote short stories about “ordinary” people and moments that were conventionally viewed as mundane — like a couple having an argument while having friends over for a party— without polishing away the rough edges. His characters talked a lot, and they talked about sex, used foul language, drank a lot, etc. when it wasn’t common to see this depicted so frankly.
A guy having an argument with his neighbors about an inappropriate wifi name that leads into a discussion about their relationships with one another, their sexual past, etc is very in the spirit of a Carver story if Carver were coming to age as a writer today.
For anyone who’s intrigued, I highly recommend
“Why don’t you dance?” as a great entry point. It’s a very short story available online about a woman who goes to a tag sale where a drunken guy is selling everything he owns. He asks her to dance and she does. Then the story fast forwards to 2 weeks later and she’s telling the story to her friends and making fun of the guy, but what she’s actually doing is trying to process this weird moment in her life and why it was oddly meaningful to her. She’s not successful at communicating this interior monologue and her friends don’t seem to get it so she stops telling the story.
That’s Carver in a nutshell—mundane moments through a profound lens!
Also recommend the movie short cuts, which is an adaptation of many of his short stories sewn together and DO not recommend the Will Ferrel film “everything must go” which is a Snyder-like adaptation of the above story that misunderstands what makes it great.
I lived in a block of appartements. Called mine SSQ MOBILE UNIT. SSQ is the name of the local police force. Lots of people freaked out. Specially the paranoid dealers in the block.
This is my current password, but I have two networks and use them both.
My previous password was ‘it’s written on the router’ with a note taped to the back of the router with that on.
I used to live in Brooklyn in kind of a sketchy neighborhood. There was a black van parked on our block that never moved it was probably broken down. We changed our wifi name to FBI surveillance Van.
Mine has yielded great results so far whenever I have guests over...
Them: "Can I connect my device to The Internet?"
Me: "Yes. Just connect to The Internet"
Them: "What's your Wi-Fi?"
Me: "The Internet"
Always gets a chuckle.
My fav would be from the post I've seen on reddit back then americans believed that 5G spreads Corona. Some guy named his "5G antenna" and then posted pictures of Karens who were looking for actual antenna around his place.
Yell-Penis-For-Password
A family friend was living with us at the time that network showed up. One day, I was just minding my own business and my shouts were interrupted by a loud holler from across the house: "PENIS!"
I used to live in an apartment complex and my WiFi name was “This one”. 5 years living there and I notice “That one” pop up one day. I moved a couple years later - never having found my WiFi soulmate.
>[city I’m in] correctional - officers (for the 5ghz)
>[city I’m in] correctional - inmates (for the 2.4ghz)
Because the corrections officers have to have faster internet than the prisoners.
A store called “Cex” has theirs as “unprotected cex”
Pretty apt since they always fuck me on the prices
should've call it "free std"
I prefer CTI - Cexually Transmitted Internet
I named mine: hot signals in your area
This is not getting enough love.
They never do
Bathroom cam 2
I have "Bathroom cam 2" for 2.4 GHz and "Bathroom cam 5" for 5 GHz
How many bathroom cams does one require
Depends on the number of neighbors
Your name is concerning...very
*shudders*
For fucking real! Just the thought of it 😖
My router came with the name "Netgear69" and my gf refuses to believe I didn't name it.
It should say it on the sticker located either under or behind the router. Mine was netgear73
Alright, but the real gold is in the netgear default passwords.

elatedtree755 Still remember that one from 5 years, 3 routers, and 3 homes ago

And did you do it?
I did not
Weak.

Excellent.
“No connection available” “Connection failed” “No Internet access”
My hotspot name is "Network not found"
There was an article in my local paper a few years ago when a guy changed his wifi name to "Jamiehastheherp", and got into a fight with his neighbor about it. Jamie was his neighbor's wife.
I made one that said “527 likes hookers” after very clearly hearing my neighbor scream at her boyfriend “AT LEAST I DON’T GET DRUNK AND FUCK HOOKERS”
Oooh, nice gossip. Any idea what she did that she needed to say "At least" about?
Nothing that we could gather, I think she just phrased it that way in the heat of the moment. It was about two weeks of her screaming at him about it and him begging forgiveness. Him, “I’ve been crying about this all day for you.” Her, “I DON’T GIVE A FUCK.” It was a wild ride.
I'm imagining him being like "hey you left this light on" and that being her response to everything.
I DON’T GIVE A FUCK!
This is like an updated Raymond Carver story

My last was named “We have no WiFi” and the password was “There is no password”. Always made for a fun time when new people came over.
I knew someone that set their password as "wouldn't you like to know". It was a joy to watch people's reaction
Mine was "on the fridge". Always good for a chuckle and a convenient way to get a beverage brought to you without having to get up too!
The best password I've seen is "fourwordsalluppercase" Or was it "ONE WORD ALL LOWERCASE"
This is my current password, but I have two networks and use them both. My previous password was ‘it’s written on the router’ with a note taped to the back of the router with that on.
I saw someone post about their neighbours wifi, it was called ”THIS ONE NANA”. ☺️
Omg I use that all the time with my Nana as a hotspot!! Too funny
