Shitballs. I love that word. Talking about a planet named “Shitballs” would make me start watching the Discovery Channel again.

#8 and #10 are my favorites. Just hearing the media side step around those will be comedy gold.

I think Krypton is a no-go. You might jinx it…

I would totally pack up and move to planet “ninjas.” I’m pretty sure there are Barenaked Ladies there.

Corinthia – After the place they make leather, of course.

Superfly

Just because I want to think of someone coming to earth and saying “I am from the Planet Superfly. Take me to your Funkytown.”

I say instead of ‘Snap’, we make it “OH Snap!” Because, I mean, really- what’s the point in a name without the great vernacular to go along with it?
And you forgot “Chuck Norris”… and of course “Twi-hard” (for all the tween Twilight fans out there)..
