THE 182

Ok, heres the thing, you gotta be saying, "didnt they used to be just blink?" and well...Yeah. The original trio of Mark Tom and Scott, were just blink. Until some drunken Irish electronica band (that REALLY sucks) tried to sue them for having the same name. So Blink, being the smart-ass' they are, just added a 182 to their name... Take that Alkey's. But anyways, there are numerous theories and guesses as to where they got it, or what it means, heres some rumors and lies they made up in interveiws:

• Mark's Ideal Weight (fatty...)
• The number of times Mark has lubed (masturbated) the the image of Carrie Fisher (princess leia) in the Jabba slave girl outfit
• The number of how many times Scott watched...
• The case number from when the 3 guys raped their neighbor's horse
• 1+8=9....8-2=6....reverse it and voila 69
• A story as told by Mark: "My grandfater was on a destroyer in WWII, and a Japanese zero kamakazi'd it, and it sank. My grandfather and five other men got to a liferaft whose number was 182. They survived at sea for ten days until they were rescued. They were the only ones who survived, becuase of the lifeboat, and they all got tattoos of the number 182 on their arms."
• The number of times Al Pachino said "fuck" in Scarface
• Stolen from the movie Turk 182
• The number of talk shows Scott watched this last summer involving club kids
