In keeping with the musical parody noted above, how about the "SpaceX Launch You Up Party Thread"?

"I'd rather be launching"

If this is going to be the one true party thread, just think of how many thousands of hours are going to be lost....

Could we give the thread a new name for each launch, while keeping it the same thread?

I think we'll be having multiple threads regardless, so plenty more naming opportunities. A single never ending party thread will surely test the limits of the forum backend at some point.

Like it.

I also like my parody-rip off title idea:

"Party, Land, and Re-Party SpaceX Party"

First off, criteria for a Name:

1) it musk Mention SpaceX
2) it should NOT reference a specific LV / SC
3) it should be FUN!!!

My suggestion therefore:

The SpaceX Lunch - Drinking Game Party Thread

Well since the superdelegate apparently already chose one, I won't bother voting for any more other ones :)
