How Do Cars Get Their Names? Art, Science And A Legal Process.

From pet monikers to baby names, labeling anxiety runs rampant, but car naming takes the cake—just ask Chevy Nova, whose perfectly fine name was falsely rumored to mean "doesn't go" in Spanish, creating an urban legend as persistent as that weird smell in your uncle's station wagon. While some automakers hide behind alphanumeric alphabet soup (looking at you, Mercedes-Benz GLC 350e 4Matic), most vehicle names are crafted by committees who spend countless hours ensuring your new ride doesn't accidentally translate to "roadside disaster" in seventeen languages. At the end of the day, perhaps we should worry less about what we call our cars and more about whether they actually, you know, go.

Procrastination: where dreams go to die and YouTube cat videos wearing tiny sombreros thrive. This silent killer lurks among us, transforming our grand ambitions into smoldering ashes of regret, leaving us with nothing but the bitter taste of "I wish I had" and a browser history full of utterly useless entertainment. Like a credit card on a shopping spree, procrastination offers momentary bliss until the bill arrives—usually in the form of a bowling ball to the stomach and the haunting vision of what could have been.

Quentin Tarantino Picks His Favorite Songs From The 1970s.

In an alternate universe where he isn't busy crafting elaborate revenge plots, Quentin Tarantino would make a killer mixtape curator, approaching record collections with the same meticulous obsession he brings to crafting iconic film scenes – the man who can't picture Marsellus Wallace's golden briefcase without Al Green crooning in the background clearly missed his calling as cinema's most discerning musical archaeologist. His soundtracks generate as much speculation as his films themselves, with culture vultures eagerly awaiting each new compilation like vinyl-hungry vultures circling a record store. Much like his characters' meandering yet purposeful dialogue, Tarantino's sonic selections weave through decades and genres before landing the perfect needle-drop that makes you wonder how you ever watched a Mexican standoff without Dick Dale's surf guitar shredding in your ears.
