Last night I noticed @BadAstronomer posting ideas for a Twitter meme, #fishpopstars. It’s pretty much what you’d expect: take a singer or band name and make a pun with the name of a fish.

Katie and I came up with these:

• Death Crab for Cutie
• Chum-bawamba
• Flounders of Wayne
• Vienna Tang
• Betta than Ezra
• Dace of Base (or Ace of Bass)

Some favorites from the event:

• beano76: Sushi and the Banshees
• shinkaide: Squid Vicious
• MisterElGuapo: No Trout
• ebrown2112: Fleetwood Mackerel
• Caissie: Sharkira
• dominichamon: Kylie Minnow
• ethanwc: Crash Test Guppies
• ThisModernDeath: Ling Cod Park
• earlkabong: Herman’s Hermit Crabs
• znmeb: Pike and Tuna Turner
• AndyJukes: Smelton John
• KenPlume: Mackerel Jackson
• notgiamatti: Jefferson Starfish

It looks like it’s still going on if you’re in the mood for fish puns.
