New FT name needed for JP miles (entertainment value post)

So our fellow FT'ers on the DL forum have very aptly re-christened DL Skymiles as Skypesoes reflecting their low value and how hard they are to use.
I suggest that we do the same for JP Miles here... am thinking possible JP Moongphalis (peanuts for those of you who don't speak hindi)... any other suggestions?

How about
JP - Ju-Ju-Bees?

(say Ju-Ju-Bee in tamil, and you will hear "Thalaivar Rajini" talking)

the jp redemption team should change their name to the jp earning team....because all we can do is earn miles....redeeming for anything worthwhile is next to impossible....

Jhut not only means lies, but is also a term for garment manufacturing waste

How about JetPunishment ?


By the way, I have a nice little poem :

Jetuna Matata ! What a wonderful phrase.
Jetuna Matata ! It's our latest craze.
It means no money for the rest of our days.
Now, our profit-free
philo-sophy : Jetuna Matata !

Jetuna Matata ! It's the most beautiful phrase.
Jetuna Matata ! More than just a phase.
O why can't you see, we so love our schizo ways.
Hail our connec-tions
philo-sophy : Please fly Emi-rates.
Jetuna Matata !

I say Jetuna ! You say Matata !

Jetuna ! Matata !

(I say Rose en you say Thal !)

I am glad we all have such a good sense of humor - now if only Naresh Goyal could read this and see what a mockery has become of what he built courtesy truly incompetent management
