[Opinions] Re: Venus

I once knew a very old lady named Venus. She was unmarried, tiny and bent and a passionate Scrabble player at club level. I thought that almost any name, except perhaps Aphrodite, would have been less unkind.

I dunno, that story is kind of selling Venus for me! The idea of Venus as a tiny, wizened Scrabble goddess is pretty fricken' amazing. It gives it some soul! I think of razors when I see the name, it has no personality to me.
