Ok my first suggestion got shot down. Here's my next best (serious) suggestion.
Weaver.
edit: yes I went with that on purpose instead of Ripley because I have too many friends that named their animals Ripley.
If we're going with an Aliens vibe, why not choose Newt? Small, disheveled, survivor type...?
Glad I checked the thread a few minutes after my last comment. I think it's up between newt&randy.
Another excellent suggestion.
I'm confused and just asking. Is this an aliens reference when Ripley took over a loader to fuck up the queen alien in number two?
Sorry I'm on mobile (boost) and can't see a good resolution image.
Yeah, Ripley being the ultimate survivor (until she wasn't, spoiler alert), but I know so many people that named their pet Ripley I felt Weaver was a better choice.
No worries homie! She will definitely be not named Ripley. Although "black goo" ain't out the question with how she is acting like Velcro with my ear.
