Wacky ideas

My colleagues and I were having an informal project discussion yesterday. There came a point when we needed to think of a meaningful name for a menu item that will reset the application back to its original state. We ended up with lotsa wacky, nonsensical ideas. Here're some:

Delete all Settings (quite boring)

Reset to default factory settings (also boring)

Rebirth (cool)

Be Reborned (hmm..)

Delete (this happens when the programmer is too lazy to think of meaningful names)
[press]
All settings/data deleted.
(I can imagine the user having a heart attack at this point.)


Delete all data/settings here. The programmer is too busy to create the confirmation window next. So please confirm now. Sorry ah!
(yes, have mercy on the programmer please)


Press Me (I came up with this one :p)
[press]
All data deleted.
You were too curious.
Who ask you to Press Me?
(Quite evil right? My boss will kill me.)


In the end, we chose something more sane, fortunately or unfortunately. If we were to use such crazy descriptions, the users will be more interested in pressing the menu items to discover what crazy messages lie ahead, than in using the application itself. Haa. Crazy us.
