My wife had a patient who named her daughter Clamydia because she thought
it sounded 'pretty'. I'm not sure how she spelled it on the birth cert.

I once knew a guy called Lemonjello. Did not pronounce it as Lemon Jello, though.

So, I know we can crack a joke about anything around here, but does no one see my point about selling a shoe named Kailash?
Is it just me?

I don't think any name should be off-limits. If the La Sportiva C.untmaster was the best edging shoe I'd buy it and wouldn't care.
Best not to get too precious or worked up over such silly things. The mountain loses none of it's luster if it is put on a hiking boot.

Sorry Tami, I guess we were posting at the same time!!
The new North Face Vagina jacket is really cozy.
I guess the Scarpa Faggots would be a great shoe for you GDavis?

Speaking of, did you know there is a climb with the disgusting name of "tighter than a twelve year old"?

Is that the problem you have with the name of the shoe, survival?
It's nothing except that these companies will whore any word to sell anything.
Never mind, I've gotta go to the store and get my George Washington hemorrhoid cream and some Al Jolson toothpaste.

Back in the 90's Reebok named a women's running shoe the "Incubus" not realizing that the Incubus is an evil spirit that would descend upon women and rape them.
They soon changed it

really the most annoying "product" names are the fake names applied to housing subdivisions. BS names like Cedar Glen are way more appalling than using some mystical, eastern religious figures name.
The previous example should be called "There used to be Cedar trees and a Glen here, but now there are just inefficient, McMansion, cookie cutter homes". That's a helluva lot more realistic. The division I lived in when i was a kid was all Scottish themed although I can't recall there being any Highlands or Terraces.
Cars are annoying too. Tell me what about an SUV has anything to do with Tahoe or Rainier?
LeCar had it best, the name meant car.

I once had a windbreaker, the brand was "Because It's There." True.

During residency, Bill witnessed parents naming their kid... Well let me just say it is pronounced "shih-thayd" but it's spelled "shithead." Apparently it's a common name in Arabia.
Very disturbing for this society.

Jammer, although I can appreciate your desire to turn anything and everything into anti semite speak, I found nothing in your link about Mt. Kailash.
You don't really want me to explain anything, you simply want to hate Israel. But thanks for stopping by.
