To ask what brand names you hate?

[sandytoes84]

Expecting first baby and physically revolted by twee brand names...tommy tippee, cudl, cuggle (the worst offender) and the most ridiculous encountered so far...petunia pickle bottom, what the actual fuck?!

I can’t be the only one to have such a reaction - what brand names do you hate?

VIPoo. I refuse to believe they couldn't think of a better name. And it's a completely stupid product, nasty synthetic faux lemon "perfume" that you spray down the toilet before you do a dump and it overpowers the smell of said dump. Huh? And it costs about £5. We really have reached peak consumption if people buy this, what's wrong with a quick squirt of toilet duck?

I always find Otis Spunkmeyer cookies a bit hard to swallow...but as they give them away free in Furniture Village I force them down

I've never liked the name Maxi Cosi. Don't get why almost every new parent has to buy a car seat with this name on it.

There's a brand of nursing lingerie/ clothing called Hot Milk. Just makes me every time I see it. Just reminds me of being a new mum and constantly smelling of leaking breastmilk. Bleugh!

Lululemon

It's a stupid word for starters, and the only women I know who like it are the most insufferable up themselves bitches going.

Hate brands in general

@BuzzShitbagBobbly for the longest time I was pronouncing it ‘loo loo la mon’ how are you supposed to know where to divide the stupid made up word?! 😂

I bought a lovely bikini this summer, but returned it when I saw the brand logo was "Hot Tuna".

Who wants to wear something around their genitals which says "Tuna"? Just no.

Also, "Sweaty Betty" gym gear.
I'd rather buy them in New Look!

Pretty little thing
Gym shark
Sweaty Betty
Mamas and papas

Yorkshire Fucking Tea.

Yes we get it, you like to play on the stereotypes.

But just fuck off with it.

(The TalkTalk guy can do one as well)

ICandy
Bugaboo

Names of these beans the o my reason I didn’t get one

Hot Milk and Hot Tuna are both gross. Who wants to smell of old sour milk or fish?

Pinch of Nom makes me feel sick. It sounds like someone eating with a stuffy nose.

I am from Yorkshire. I love the Yorkshire Tea adverts. My DP always asks where it is in Yorkshire that they actually grow the tea !

@Wheat2Harvest

That just made me guffaw

Still on page 1 but less anussy and Vagina is not very well

@snugglepumpkin

I have some good news for you... Snickers are currently doing a “retro edition” packaging and have temporarily renamed them Marathon. I achieved a four pack in Morrisons last week ( and yes, it does say “Marathon” on each individual bar wrapper inside and not just on the outer packet ( I’ll admit, I was quite nervous about that).

'Jo Jo Maman Bebe. There’s literally no easy way to say this'.

I once met a Surrey Mum, who pronounced this with a French accent.

Anything where they whack on umlauts (ä, ü, ö) to try to seem continental and fancy, like snüzpod

Umlauts mean you imagine there's an e afterwards - snuezpod?

Plus the implications for the website make me cross, you'd have to have graphics showing the umlaut but take it out in text as people won't google with it in...

Nike.

It just sounds like some weird American teenage boy with his hair greased up in a... spike. That's the mental image it brings up for me anyway.

And people who say it as NIKEY. You don't ride a bloody bikey or get your kids to ride a trikey!!

And breathe...

@Wacawaca19

I’d never have a Quinny ( medieval fanny?)

I thought I was the only one! I think this every time I see one. I said this on a baby name thread about the name Quinn yesterday and although a lot of people said the same about the name nobody else seems to think the same about the pram brand.

Nasty Gal

Cushelle -for toilet paper.Can't even say why but the name and adverts irritate me irrationally.

Nike is pronounced Nikey though as it is named after the Greek Godess Nike (Nikey) Literally hate it when people call it Nike
