        Reminds me of a gag in one of the Asterix comics (i think it was Asterix in Helvetia, but I might be wrong), where an innkeeper would yell “cuckoo” whenever an hour had passed, alerting everyone to turn their hourglasses in order to keep track of time

    Fun Fact, in Cantonese, “Big Ben” is translated as “大笨鐘”, or literally “Big Stupid Clock”. I guess that’s the Hong Konger’s way of getting back at UK for the colonialism. 🤭

        I mean, there is a timeline where China became Democratic, and HK could’ve be thriving under this alt-universe’s democratized ROC rule.

        But unfortunate, this timeline, we get shitty CCP tyranny, and they are working hard to eradicate the Cantonese language.

        What’s that saying: “Out of the frying pan into the fire”? Yea HK is basically that lol.

        Regardless, “Big Stupid Clock” is still a funny name, regardless of one’s opinions on the UK.

        I’m from Guangzhou, not HK, so I guess my views are different. I view both the UK’s colonialism and CCP’s tyranny negatively. (Maybe UK was slightly less bad, but still… it was colonialism)

        Also I didn’t seriously suggested they hate UK, its a joke given the name they gave to it.

    fuck it.

    The BELL is called big ben, not the tower

    I vote to rename the tower as Big Mohammed while keeping the Bell’s name. Big Mo for short. Big Mo & Big Ben have a nice ring to it.

    and it will give half the gammons an aneurysm.

    see no downsides

    Even if they didn’t know that the Rochdale Herald is a satirical newspaper, the fact that Rochdale is a random satellite town of Manchester, about 200 miles away from London, ought to have given them pause as to the credibility of the article.

    No, scrub that, the headline was enough of a clue. Idiots.

      big ben is the bell, not the tower,. so renaming the tower to Big Mo (catchy name) wouldn’t change the Big Ben.

          We don’t need any official renaming, start calling the tower Big Mo, go around saying that Big ben is the bellend, and the tower is Big Mo. if it becomes a meme it might actually hold long enough to become a common term.
