I really hate the new name

[–] Sternhammer@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It feels very foreign somehow. Or a Billy Joel reference FFS.

Always makes me think of this other song. Really weird name for a shop.

what’s updog?

[–] ComradeBunnie@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

It sounds so dated.

Uptown mall, I'll be shopping at the Uptown Mall.

Whoever's idea this was, any compensation they received was too much.

Eh, who cares what they think the new name is. It will always be the Myer Centre.
