Boobies

BooberSo, somewhere last year someone was handing out pens at the train station. And sure, I liked a free pen, so I accept one from the guy handing them out and read the text on it.

The name on the pen said Boobies. Then I looked again, and it still said Boobies. Afer a third time I re-read the name, but only then it said “Boober”.

Boober is peer-to-peer lending market place (like Prosper). Now, I do realize there was a Fraggle named Boober Fraggle in Fraggle Rock, but I still wouldn’t name my company Boober if people were to trust lending and borrowing money through it.

Just imagine meeting an employee working there: “I work at Boober” “At hooters?” “No, at Boober” “Boobies?”
