Jerry NMN Miller writes (inter alia):
I would definitely stay away from any brand called "Death" (on your list)
just on general principle, just as I would not fly on Just Short of the Runway
Airlines!

I was wondering about Death brand cigs too; perhaps the tobacco companies are
taking a new tack on pre-empting false advertising lawsuits. But I like that
airlines company as well. It reminds me of the routine Monty Python used to
have (or some other group--does anyone recall it?) that played off the old
"With a name like Smuckers it HAS to be good", creating e.g. Vomit brand
canned ham or Dead Cat brand aerosol (those weren't the original examples, but
should give you the idea): "With a name like ____, it has to be absolutely
fanTAStic!"

If I remember correctly, it was SNL, Saturday Night Live, that begain in their
faux-commercials the takeoffs: "With a name like 'Mangled Baby Ducklings', it
has to be good."
Vis-a-vis the original thread, shall we for the sake of commercial propriety
ignore the various "comic" brand of cigarettes such as "Camel Shit" and
"Bull Shit" that can be found in Montana and novelty stores (sic)?
