Is it shallow, or petty, to decide based on name alone? Yeah, pretty much, but there’s probably something, a product or service or site, that the name has made you gloss right over it or jump to it ASAP.
What are some examples that spring to mind for you?
Thought of another! I don’t have opportunity to go there anyway, cos they’re not in my country, but I always thought In-N-Out Burger was a uniquely terrible name.
So, it’s a burger that will be in and out. Why will it be in and out? Are you going to vomit it back up? Or is it because it’ll give you diarrhea? Or what else could In-N-Out mean? Sex? Why are you making me think about sex in such proximity to vomit and diarrhea? Honestly, I’m not hungry anymore.
I always thought it was a deliberately horrible name to court controversy, but it turns out the owner is a conservative Christian so it may be genuine tone deaf idiocy.
…it’s because you go in and out of the restaurant quickly. Because it’s fast food.
