Title: SAGA - Social Amenities for the Golden Age
Post by: Vilidius on September 03, 2011, 05:31:07 PM
I'm not kidding.  Follow this link:

Someone brought this to our attention on the TOR boards.  Apparently, calling ourselves "Saga" and appealing to a mature audience can have some complex associations for the British market, where this company that caters their services to an "older clientele" is commonly known.

Note that their target market is 50+.  It may not be too long before we qualify.  Hell, someone should talk with them about sponsorship...

A couple of us already do (qualify), and when the rest of us are eligible, I want our cruise to be a LAN cruise.  I wonder what it means that some of our British members have never brought this up before?  :P

SAGA - Doing things properly.

Sounds good.
I was worried it was a Porn publisher, or some french cheese manufacturer.
My big question is, why do the British get "senior" benefits at 50+?
That's almost reason enough to live in dreary London. Almost.

Well the first Google hit for Saga that I always get is some Scandinavian rock band. They have T-shirts, by the way, so we don't have to make any of our own for the guild. We can just use theirs.

Quote from: Ryland, or some french cheese manufacturer.

My grocery does stock that Saga cheese. I haven't tried it yet, though.

Lately, many of our threads seem to steer toward porn and cheese.  :--- :cow

There is also a Saga Outerwear company.

But it looks like you have to be either a snowboarder or a douchebag to wear it.


I figured that I'd better weigh in on a conversation about porn and cheese. I have a reputation to keep, you know.
