Did you see that list of names for the 2023 storms? Well, I allege
that there is a disproportionate number of whitepeople names in that
list. If there aren't some protests pretty soon about this outrageous
racism in storm names, there should be. And for that matter, why did
they leave out a Q name? The WMO is literally obviously populated by a
bunch of homophobes, and they should be held accountable.

Look....like, Storm Names Matter, you know.

There's already been a George so I'm covered there. I don't recall there
ever being an Anthony. However, to get some non-whitey naming, they
could go with L'Anthony, or how about a D'Bill, La'Donald or better yet,
La'TechnoBarbarian (AKA Flau-Ja' Dodger).

Maybe He of Many Monikers will chime in here. He has a million of 'em.

What is your criteria for "whitepeople" names? I bet there's probably plenty of "them" out there, queer as a three dollar bill, black as the ace of spades, & followed by a host of letters, with a name in the common usage....

I allege that you have conflated that which was not intended to be
conflated - race and queer - just so that you could allege what you
alleged. How many Blacks, Asians, Mexicans, Arabs, and/or East Indians
who are named Tammy or Nigel do you probably bet there are out there?
At the end of the day going forward, I bet there are damfew -
statistically speaking.

There's damn few Tammys, or Nigels, around either! Has there ever been a Hurricane named either "Tammy", or "Nigel"?

Not that I know of, but it appears uniquely possible that there's
about to be - if Climate Change does its part. Did you think I just
pulled those names out of my ass at the end of the day going forward?
Didn't you read the link? Here, I'll make it literally easy for you by
giving you a link straight to the names, and you won't even have to
scroll and possibly get a transitory brain strain:

This is a ridiculous discussion. Tammy ? Nigel? Could they make hurricanes more boring? They should be drawing names from other sources. How about a Godzilla hurricane? Or Frankenstein? Or Satan? Or Death? Or The Destroyer? People might take hurricanes more seriously if they gave them serious names. Anything but Whitney. They might as well call it Whitey.

C'mon, man....look.....at the end of the day going forward, calling
them serious and fearsome names would literally be risky and
incautious. What if they called one The Destroyer, and it turned out
to be wimpy and only half-broke one tree on a side street in a small
redneck climate change denying town? I'll tell you what - the
credibility of weather people from the WMO down to the local station
is what would be destroyed. Innocent weather people would lose their
jobs and be unable to feed their families and coastal politicians
would tremble in their dress sneakers and it's uniquely possible that
they'd lose their next election. I allege that your poorly pondered
fear-mongering naming scheme would be inefficacious on many levels,
and by the metric of any calculus is simply a bad idea.
So....look.....do The Right Thing and take it off the table, man -
before social media influencers can establish it as an existential
Threat to Democracy and people start boycotting hurricanes.

Meanwhile, I allege that someone must be held accountable by someone
for failing to follow the universally accepted principles of DEI when
naming 2023 potential hurricanes.

Follow the principles..............and the science, of course.

Yeah, there are a ton of names that are better than the official list. I also like: Bambi, Puff, Hammer, Nightmare, Hamburger, Milkshake and Buttercup better than what's on that list.

Biden would probably feel honored by being included. But, Heck, what am I thinking?!?!? The government could raise a lot of money by auctioning the naming rights, one hurricane at a time. Elon is an obvious customer. I'll bet #45 could raise enough money from his fans for one or two hurricanes.. Amazon would probably want to get in on the action. Maybe offer special discounts to customers who were hit by their hurricanes? Insurance companies are another obvious customer.

Trust me, insurance companies want no part of hurricanes. As to names,
Snowflake might be good for an end of season hurricane name. Might be
done to the "S"s by then and few of those ever scare anybody.

"Universally accepted"? Isn't the whole point of DEI that it isn't universally accepted? What would a vice-president for DEI do if it was universally accepted? Build campfires and lead in rousing rounds of Kumbaya? It looks like DEI is part of woke, or maybe it just leads to wokeness.

Whenever some fool says "trust me", I automatically check to be sure I know where my wallet is. I never ever trust the people who say this.

Believe me, you just don't get it. Absolutely nothing to do with the
topic of hurricane names but of course The Artful Dodger lives up to his
(is that your preferred pronoun?) name.

lol, Originally this thread wasn't about hurricane names, almighty keeper of the topic.

Over the years how many time do you think you have trolled me with this sort of sophomoric and repetitive troll? It must be at least a couple of thousand times. And you still deny being a troll? LOL

It was about hurricanes. Not much of a leap to get to names of
hurricanes. You need to stop copying my words and terms and get some
originality in your inane posts. You bitch, moan and whine (commonly
called a beemer... BMW) yet you continue to respond. By the way, I doubt
if I've posted one thousand times about anything much less your
incomprehensible drivel.
