All this brings me to my next topic: What kind of name is Zwan for a band?
Granted, it wasn't really a band but still, what gives?

It reminds me of those shitty Zima commercials (which compared to Zwan are far more entertaining) where the asshole spokesperson would pronounce all the words that started with an 's' with a 'z' instead.

Man, fuck Zwan.

6. They quit making it last year or the year before
Interestingly enough, it coincided with when the last remaining Smashin Punkins fan quit being a fan.

Coincidence? I think not.

2. Zima might just be the most lame thing you can put in a bottle.
As for Zwan - that's obvious. They wanted to name it "Swan", but were too stoned to pronounce it correctly.

9. I don't think I know even one of their songs.
Maybe 'zwan' means utterly forgettable and lame.
