Should the Country of Turkey Change the name of its Capital City?

[supercutebutt]

Ankara or Jive? Which do you prefer? VOTE!

No. It is fine the way it is.

Yes! It is time for a change.

[jakerson181]

Subtle humor, like parody and sarcasm doesn't really work here. Trust me, I've tried. The general intelligence level is just not high enough to even get it, let alone appreciate it.

Having said that, Jive is short and sweet but I would prefer either Mesquitesmoked or Honeyglazed as the new name for the capital.

[supercutebutt]

I guess so. And my idea came from a dream I had. I was in elementary school and somebody had written the word "Jive" above the word Turkey on all of the globes in the school. Every globe I looked at said 'Jive Turkey'. I found it amusing in the dream and when I woke up.

Your ideas are more delicious sounding but I think Jive is funnier.

[jakerson181]

Maybe I was just hungry when I thought of them.

[Jjpayne]

Oh! I need to see jive turkey happen, 🦃 👉 big time! 👈 🦃

[supercutebutt]

Yeah it's not getting a lot of votes but it does need to happen.

[Jjpayne]

We need to start a petition! We need some jive in turkey!

[Jjpayne]

Thank you for the mho 😊

[purplepoppy]

They've also got a town called bursa which is also the name given to a worms genital grasping organ.

[supercutebutt]

I wouldn't want Bursa to be be the capital of Turkey mainly because it doesn't sound as good as Jive Turkey. At least I don't think so.

[PrudentGuy]

Change the country name "Turkey" to "Cute Butt Chicken".

The economy should flourish after that. Tourism likely make up 75% GDP.

And @supercutebutt your contribution is the greatest.

[supercutebutt]

Thanks, PrudentGuy :)

[PrudentGuy]

😝 I think you're as cute as your butt 🤣🤣🤣

[REDHOTLINE]

Tourism only make up %3.8 Türkiye's GDH. AND also we aren't turkeys we are Türk. We are the great warriors of central asia. We are the grand son of METE han (who attack china and chines builded great wall the stop us ) we are grand son of hun empires ATTILA's (who attack to west rome and finish it) we are grand son of CHANGIS khan. we are grand son of FATIH SULTAN MEHMET ( who concured costantinople and make it Istanbul) we are grand son of Great SULEYMAN concured all east Europe.
First learn history then speak my friend

[PrudentGuy]

@REDHOTLINE oops... a friend from Turkey...

Sorry. I'm just flirting with @supercutebutt. No disrespect intended.

[supercutebutt]

@REDHOTLINE Tourism should grow if the capital's name is changed to Jive, though.

[REDHOTLINE]

1000 years ago our ancesstor came central asia to anotolia. They changed some placed and cities names for example costantinople renamed istanbul but some places names are didn't chance. Ankara named by galls before türk comes to anotolia. That name comes to "anchora-anchore-anchor" =ship anchor. That city named by european peoples who comes to anotolia with ship 3000 years ago and fund that city.
Now you are ridiculed with your ancestor coz they gived that cities names.
Anatolia was home so many cuktures. One of them was europeans and your ancesstors !!!

[supercutebutt]

@REDHOTLINE My idea would take away the ridicule. "Jive Turkey" would be a name all citizens could take pride in and live their lives in peaceful harmony..

[REDHOTLINE]

Dont worry we live in harmony but we can't live in peace thousands years türks (anatolian-azerbaican-ozbekistan-kazakistan-turkmenistan-kirgizistan-uygurs) and our relatives mongolian's job is being soldiers.
We born and live for war. This is our DNA. Our job is being soldiers.
Hitler has a word.
If world become a one country
Sluts being from french
Workers and engineers being from germans
Soldiers being from Türks.
We founndedso many empire and states across Europe to china with sword and shields and horses.
I am sad coz sword and shild era was end. And also our era was end.
Nowaday nobody are different same lives same clothes same desires about life.
Dont worry today we dont very different with you.

[Tea-Spaghetti]

Lol it doesn’t make sense but because you are funny I will support you.

[msc545]

No reason to change it.

[supercutebutt]

I respectfully disagree.

[msc545]

What would be the reason to change it? I probably don't understand this issue very well.

[supercutebutt]

Jive Turkey just sounds better than Ankara Turkey in my humble opinion.

[msc545]

LOL ok. got it! I am sleepy this morning! I now agree with you!

[supercutebutt]

Sweet! :)

[msc545]

So, uh, can I have my upvote from you?

[supercutebutt]

I don't agree with your original statement but i'll upvote that comment anyhow.

[msc545]

Thanks - I have no way to change it sadly.

[Blaine999]

Jive does sound groovy lol but Ankara makes more sense

[kikino]

I'm not Turkish so I don't have a vote.

[REDHOTLINE]

Jive? What do you mean? What is the point explain.

[supercutebutt]

I just think it sounds better.

[REDHOTLINE]

There is so many countries on the world ... why you choose türkiye and ankara?

[supercutebutt]

If you have a capital city suggestion for another country, post a new poll. This poll is about Turkey.

[REDHOTLINE]

Actually I asked that why its for türkiye what is the purpose?

[gandolph3]

JIVE talking, go for it

[nodnol32]

Why?

[supercutebutt]

Why not?

[nodnol32]

As far as I know there are no plans for Turkey to change the name of its capital. Plus Ankara has a feel to it. The proposed name doesn't have a turkish feel at all.

[supercutebutt]

Agree to disagree

[nodnol32]

How does 'Jive' have a turkish feel?

[supercutebutt]

Jive Turkey. It just sounds way, way better than Ankara Turkey.
