CTRL - SALT - DELETE. One of the new names for one of our city snow plows #hamont
@JasonThorne I also liked “Clearopathra”!

@Fragiledevices @JasonThorne

Ha, that’s actually a clever one!

Opinion from a guy who designs those snow plowing machines… 😅

@JasonThorne They really take this to the next level in #Scotland check out the Scottish gritter fleet and live map:

@JasonThorne Delightful!! Makes folloeing it more fun!
@JasonThorne you may enjoy some of the gritters over here in Scotland. We’ve been giving them funny names for years now. My favourite is “Carrie Bradthaw” https://trunk-road-gritter-tracker-scotgov.hub.arcgis.com/

@JasonThorne they missed a trick, should have been “patrol, salt, delete”
@JasonThorne That’s creativity at its best!
@JasonThorne Colorado has a snowplow named Darth Blader
@JasonThorne I love everything about this
@JasonThorne so much better than Salty McSaltface!
@JasonThorne Why not just "Mr. Plow" or "Plow King"?
@IronCurtain @JasonThorne "They call me MIIIIISTER PLOW!" *violence is done to a huge pile of snow, and ...a hyena?*

@JasonThorne Calgary did that too and named all 78 snow plows.
We have The Blizzard of Oz, sweet child of Brine, … so fun. #yyc

@JasonThorne that’s good, but calgary has a gordie plow, and you can’t really beat that.
@JasonThorne are republicans banning this also?
@JasonThorne It’s even got a blue screen of death!
@JasonThorne giving the Scottish gritters a pun for their money!
@JasonThorne That's one of my favourites from among the winners. 😂
@JasonThorne Perfect. No notes. A masterpiece.
@JasonThorne Nice one! Disappointed to see our local one today on the walk back from the shops hadn't bothered to name it.
@JasonThorne it’s too bad we didn’t get plow names in #Winnipeg despite a promise to @elishadacey by the then mayor. Or maybe I missed it?
