For example: Windows --> Windoze, Winblows
Whole foods -> Whole paycheck
We used to call it whole booze. Because for some foolish reason, the one in our colege town used to put giant displays of wine (like a full wall of cases of the cheap stuff) in the automatic door vestibule.
So it was pretty common to see a car zoom up, and a couple kids jump out, grab a couple cases and then peel out driving off.
Lol a trucking company I worked for in high school was called “Cheezik Transport” or something like that but all the workers called it “Cheese Dick”
The classic Ford -> Fix Or Repair Daily
My favorite is
Found
On
Road
Dead
Not companies, but “N*STINK, Backstreet Girls, and 98 Disease” lives rent free in my brain.
Please tell me that the Backstreet Girls exist now as a badass parody/cover band.
If anyone has a good one for ESRI, lmk.
Cannondale -> Crack’n’fail
The Food Hole
What does this refer to?
Whole foods?
microshaft
That got a good chuckle out of me. Like it !
For years my grub entry read
rWindows, it doesn’t make sense in English, but “Ruim” is portuguese for bad, so it sounds similar to badows.Tesla --> Swasticars
I like this one. The memes coming out of his Nazi salute were pretty good.
I found some for Apple. They aren’t all “pejorative” but still
- Fruit Company (or Fruit Store)
- i… --> iSheep, iOverprice, iGreed, iLies, iRot
- Apfel von Braun (Apple sucks up to fascists and authoritarians, Hiterl’s wife was Eva Braun, Apfel = Apple in German)
- Malus - Latin name for Apple
My fave is ‘crapple’
Simple, yet understood by everybody. Perfect.
None. It doesn’t do anything. Don’t like nestle? I don’t buy their products. Maybe spread the word among family and friends. Same for coca cola. Same for tesla. Same for a bunch of others. Finding names for them seems a bit childish.
Wow you’re so mature, I hope we can all be as grown up as you some day. Thanks for pointing out how above it all you are, it makes you seem really cool and fun. Hopefully some day the rest of us can live such rigid and whimsy-less lives, too.
X = xitter, said “shitter”
I say Twitter because Elon deadnames his children so I will deadname his platform.
Someone is trying to take over the twitter name to start a new platform: https://www.twitter.new/
I want to see Elon lose the Twitter name and be stuck with X. It’s going to be so much fun watching that happen.
It has been the toiletbowl of the world for years. Never was a “townsquare”.
Oh, I use “Twatter”.
EA has been either Electronic Farts or Evil Assholes since middle school, for me.
Citrix -> Shitrix
Yes, I’ve had the displeasure. Good one.
