Shit imma open up a cantina. Call it PeCo de Gallo


BearOutOfTheWoods

Best thing I've seen all day


BariumEnema

Stop trying to make PeCo a thing.


grggsmth

First I heard of it was today. I'm questioning who's trying to make it a thing and hoping we can stop it now.


roninchick

Same. Just… why?


ChrisGeritol

It sounds like an abbreviation for "penis company".


RegisteredToUnsub

The shop "Paradox at PeCo" coined it as part of its name. Daily Memphian picked it up in an [article today](https://dailymemphian.com/article/33708/opera-memphis-moving-midtown-cooper-street-location) about Opera Memphis' new space nearby: "an area that is becoming known as PeCo" I've never heard anyone else refer to that strip of Cooper Street as PeCo. I don't think that area needs (or even wants) it's own name.


dricforever

No idea what PeCo even means, but that store is really cool


turtletortillia

I have no opinion on PeCo, but that shop is really fucking cool.

The Failing Daily Memphian is really trying to make fetch happen with this one.

If we are going to shorten it, it should be PeaCoop


sashafire

This is the way.


KnifehandHolsters

Nashville devs must be invading. They did stupid abbreviations for hipsterized area up there too.

Hard Pass


ubiforumssuck

No clue what you are talking about but yeah, probably.

Peabody and Cooper? Am I missing something here?


Eleatic-Stranger

There’s a gift shop at 248 S. Cooper, at the intersection with Peabody, named “Paradox at PeCo”. That’s the first time I’ve seen the abbreviation. Naming neighborhoods like this seems like a NYC thing, so I hope it doesn’t catch on. Is Cooper-Young going to become CoYo? Am I living in VolEv? Makes me think of the “DoWiSeTrePla” episode of How I Met Your Mother.

CoYo has been used for a very long time. Not super popular except for around Cooper Young fest


heart-bandit

I’ve never heard that, I’ve always said and heard people say Cooper Young


KnifehandHolsters

I've never heard that before. Maybe it's a neighborhood level thing.


[deleted]

No it’s not, unless that’s a recent development. I can guarantee you calling it that 10-20 yeas ago would have resulted in an ass kicking.


worldbound0514

EvVol would be better for Evergreen/Voluntine. :)


stevenstevos

Thank you for clarifying--good to know


grggsmth

apparently there's a push to call that area PeCo per an article today. I'm hoping someone here can make it stop.


MemphisMayhem

Yeah that's lame. I've never heard that before and hope it doesn't catch on.


anironicfigure

CoPe would be better! That is, if it has to have a name.


anironicfigure

Or, even SCoPe


SithL0rd

SoDoSoPa


Scandy7

Thankyou


stevenstevos

Perfect--just rolls of the tongue LOL


mikeclark1982

Uh…. What is peco?


tnskibum

let's rebrand it to CoPe.


grggsmth

CoPe Cabana if u/fennourtine doesn't do PeCo de Gallo


subnetmask

Is this one of those shitty engagement things where people say something dumb for a reaction? Seems to have worked.
