blink

not only a shortened term for the popular punk band of the 90s and 00s Blink 182, but it was also their original name back when they were just starting out. Upon becoming popular they added a 182 to the name to avoid a lawsuit with an irish band who supposedly had the same name.

Tom: So do you like Blink 182?

Mark: Hell ya, ive been listening to them even before they added the 182 to their name, when they were just Blink
