You call it obscenity, I call it awesome-ity.

Marketing: OK, we need an even higher X3 trim level to separate the dorks from their ducats. Maybe throw in that twin-turbo engine and we can tout it as some kinda awesome racecar SUV or something.

Start the day with a grocer’s apostrophe and you’ll be critically analyzing text like Michel Foucault all day.

Credit where it’s due, they only had one joke before, how they have two.

One of H.R. Giger’s better engine designs!

At least inadvertently:

Transalp! That’s the one thing to get here. Ain’t nobody here needs a hilariously overpriced truck, whether tiny, gargantuan or Yota.

I love those MR2 Spyders. Silly, silly cars but I’d like to think that owning one is easy and fun. Just don’t plan on going grocery shopping with a friend.

It’s usually expensive to remove a leech. And always worth it.

See, you could spell and pronounce them. Or Chert.  Chert’s a good name.

You will not convince me that this isn’t a fetish thing.

Ugh. You want unique but easy for people to hear and spell? Go for a mineral name like Jasper, Jade, Flint or Opal.  Plant names are good too.
