Things I Hate: Computer-generated Names

activia.jpgSomething I saw made me see red, I think it was ‘Activia.’ When will the Age of Rounding come to an end? It seems that everything these days has a computer-created moniker, which always begins and ends in a comfort vowel. I don’t like it. Just like their names, every car out there refuses to take a position, but is rounded, as to lower its neck into its collar, to reduce its profile. In East Germany, nobody wants to stand out. No tailfins or hood ornaments, just guarded team players. There’s something about a democracy that produces uniformity and leveling. Personality disappears. How many people do you know who strike you as individuated? who make an impression? Rather most seem spontaneously generated from piles of barcoded items. When did becoming just like everyone else become a life goal?

      The nail that sticks up will be hammered down.

      The number one fear for most people, even above death, is public speaking.

      And what is public speaking?

      Standing up and letting yourself be heard.

      Therefore, the greatest fear for the majority of people is standing out and being noticed.

      You’re right. Also, Hadden brings out in his article the point that this is very much the USSA – when a Regan gets fired for, in essence, indicating disbelief in the Official State Religion of Diversity.

      He is right to emphasize that this religion is Official. State Commissions, as I’ve posted in the past, are set up with the explicit goal of indoctrinating youth in the virtues of diversity and multiculturalism.

      Americans fear their own government. We do live in a tyranny, and it is a tyranny run and produced by jews.

      We don’t live in a tyranny run and produced by Jews. We live under a tyrannical democracy that was produced by the Founding Fathers and that is run by the people. The Jews have preached egalitarianism, and this has resulted in socialistic policies and interracial marriage. We should eliminate egalitarianism, socialism, and miscegenation; but we shouldn’t eliminate the Jews. That would not be in ANYONE’S best interest.

      George Washington, Jefferson, Franklin should have become the royal family of America. That’s all.

      How long will we have to waste time reading the inanities posted by our new resident Jew johnny?

    6. Fenrir Says:

      Is jonny the “Jew and proud” guy from Amren?

    7. Carl Loerbs Says:

      To paraphrase Jesse Ventura, democracy is nothing more than a sham and a crutch for weak-minded people. But the real killer has been multiculturalism. Multiculturalism presupposes cultural equality, which is absolute bunk, since not all cultures have equal value to society. Some, like hip-hop and mariachi culture, are far more detrimental than others. As a matter of fact, hip-hop is a particularly violent form of nihilism, utterly devoid of any hope or concern about the future.

      American-style democracy has metastasized into a tyranny of the minority. The Jew sets the agenda and gets lickspittle lawmakers to confer upon it statutory protection. They then incite the non-whites to run interference for them. Don’t forget, it was 12 Jews and one black who founded the NAACP; the Jews ran it behind the scenes for over 50 years, which is why the visible black “front” men were identified as “national secretaries” rather than presidents or chairmen.

    8. johnny Says:

      No, I’m not from Amren.

    9. Tim P. Says:

      How many times have western nations expelled the jews? dozen upon dozens of times over a 2 thousand year period. How to break the cycle? eliminate the jews, one way or another.

    10. alex Says:

      Every White nation suffers from jews in exactly the same ways and for exactly the same reasons. Common problem, common solution. Germany, France, Russia, England, South Africa, Australia, U.S. – we have one enemy. That enemy is the jew.

      Destroy the jews and we’re home free. We can deal with the niggers, mexishits, and pakrats in days.

      These meaningless, shat-out-by-marketing-kikes names stamped on virtually every product has pissed me off for years. Cars used to have rugged, aggressive names taken from real things that conjured up visions of speed & power: Mustang, Corvette, Impala, etc. Now it’s tapioca like Camry, Valeo, Achieva, blah fuckin’ blah.

      Then there’s the equally meaningless corporate symbols like AT&T’s – uh…..”ball seen though blue venetian blinds” thingy……

    12. N.B. Forrest Says:

      Another verbal hemorrhoid: shyster car dealers lamely attempting to replace “used” with “pre-owned”…..

      And let’s not forget corporate encouraging/caving in to prole doofusity: DUCK tape instead of DUCT, etc.

    13. Outis Says:

      Have you noticed that brandname drugs sound like alien planets on Star Trek? Nexium, Prozac, Strattera, Motilium, Diazepam…

      That lady’s tits are too small, moreover.
