7. toolnut - January 31st, 2008 at 12:07 pm
Seriously. . . Lemon Barf!!! That brings back memories of a specific drink that didn’t sit too well with me. Yuck!
Erektus has go to be fake, the picture on the can is just too perfect.
Who needs an instruction book for and “erector”. I thought it was mostly involuntary.
Pee Cola, what can I say, that is just wrong.
8. Miss Destiny - January 31st, 2008 at 12:09 pm
I’m gonna go out and find me a Fart Bar! Haha great list!
9. Taos - January 31st, 2008 at 12:10 pm
“4. rearden - January 31st, 2008 at 11:50 am

looking at the erector
10. DanOhh - January 31st, 2008 at 12:11 pm
When I drink from my wife’s Vergina I always have have to dig into her Muffe but I make sure to give her my Woodii. She’ll tell me that she doesn’t whan that and Schovit in my Happy Crak! Well then I have to Finger Marie insted because I’m stuck here with an Erektus and I realy need a Pee Cola.
11. chershey - January 31st, 2008 at 12:11 pm
The older brother in 13 seems to be thinking “my, what a nice erector you have there Tommy.”
12. chershey - January 31st, 2008 at 12:12 pm
DanOhh: LOL!
13. Anthony - January 31st, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Shito made me laugh out loud.
14. Joss - January 31st, 2008 at 12:18 pm
rofl@DanOhh
15. Mystern - January 31st, 2008 at 12:28 pm
Good God . . . And I thought the first ones were bad . . .
16. toolnut - January 31st, 2008 at 12:31 pm
DanOhh: that is pretty creative, couldn’t have done it better myself!
17. Chestica - January 31st, 2008 at 12:33 pm
I always wake up to a big bowl of Happy Crak.
18. SubliminalDeath666 - January 31st, 2008 at 12:38 pm
ROFL!! Pee Cola! That’s just plain wrong!
19. Santiago - January 31st, 2008 at 12:38 pm
Loooooovely… I loved the Finger Marie!
In Argentina they had to rename the Mitsubishi Pajero to Montero, because “pajero” literally means “a guy that jerks off a lot”.
20. Schiesl - January 31st, 2008 at 12:38 pm
what about the energy drink “Bawls” that is pretty funny
21. adam - January 31st, 2008 at 12:44 pm
çemen would be ‘chemen’, not ‘cemen’.
22. me - January 31st, 2008 at 12:48 pm
Great again but still nothing beats the I. Beat Blaxx from the first list
23. Borg - January 31st, 2008 at 12:50 pm
This tastes like asse!
24. TMo - January 31st, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Yo I had Erector sets when I was little. Always cracked me up asking for more for Christmas.
25. toolnut - January 31st, 2008 at 1:13 pm
Well, we are having one of the worst winter storms in we’ve had all season right now. So I have been told to leave the office. This means, no more internet for me. Wish me luck getting home and catch up with you guys tomorrow.
26. jfrater - January 31st, 2008 at 1:13 pm
Good luck toolnut!
27. jfrater - January 31st, 2008 at 1:14 pm
DanOhh: your comment almost makes this a NSFW list
Hilarious.
28. Versailles - January 31st, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Not really unfortunate, but amusing nonetheless:

29. Csimmons - January 31st, 2008 at 1:41 pm
I want to me the assholes who give these products their names and just ask,”WHAT THE F*** WERE YOU THINKING?!?”
30. DanOhh - January 31st, 2008 at 1:54 pm
So my wife says, “This Cock tastes just like Asse.” I tell her “I’m sorry I mixed it up with my Golden Gaytime.”
31. jake ryder - January 31st, 2008 at 1:55 pm
I love that shito is new and improved. “Much better than our regular Shito.”
32. rearden - January 31st, 2008 at 2:01 pm
Csimmons: I’d like to sit in on that boardroom meeting/strategy session and contribute!
“Rearden, you haven’t come up with anything good lately. Problems at home?”
“No sir, but I have a name that I think you may like…”
33. magnidude - January 31st, 2008 at 2:09 pm
Well, concerning “Fart Bar” :). Let me just say that in the country of origin, Poland so to speak, the word “fart”, funny enough, has completely different meaning. According to my online dictionary it means “lucky break, flash in the pan (whatever it is :))”. The expression “mieć farta” (”mieć” meaning “to have”) means sth like “to be extremely lucky” and is commonly used in Poland.
34. Moriarti - January 31st, 2008 at 2:16 pm
I wouldn’t having some vergina while I watch the superbowl
35. Derek99 - January 31st, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Hilarious list! Much happier than the World War 17 that’s going down at the bible tales list….
I really want some of those fart bars
36. Csimmons - January 31st, 2008 at 2:22 pm
Derek99: I know, but its more like World War 666 goin on over there.
37. jfrater - January 31st, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Sorry for the distraction
I am stopping my side of the debate now - pearls and swine and all that 
38. JimmyKnipps - January 31st, 2008 at 2:27 pm
New Improved Shito is like New Coke for me. I prefer Shito Classic!
39. lola - January 31st, 2008 at 2:41 pm
I understand how these mistakes are made in other countries, where they are only concerned with what it means to them, in their language, but when it comes to English language products, then it really is a crime. WHACK OFF is insane.
40. DanOhh - January 31st, 2008 at 3:01 pm
Whack Off is at first trying to be responsible. Look at the top of the bottle there is a WARNING.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
But then in the middle it says:
NOT TO BE USED ON CHILDREN 5 YEARS OLD
Should it read that it shouldn’t be use by anyone under the age of 18.
41. am - January 31st, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Here’s one:

43. Mom424 - January 31st, 2008 at 3:25 pm
I know wood, but whats a haribo?
and #11 rofl…
44. porobot - January 31st, 2008 at 3:27 pm
Number one is not funny for Greeks (me for example)
Vergina is the royal capital of the Macedonian empire. (Alexander the Great)
And its kinda hard for me to see vagina in Vergina.
45. downhighway61 - January 31st, 2008 at 3:27 pm
i don’t know about #3…
it’s hard to improve on a classic.
46. Bob - January 31st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Engrish doesn’t really count.
Erektus is probalby intentional.
47. Merllin - January 31st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Chupa Chups, which are a common lollipop in Europe, means “a BJ” in the Philippine language. Since it is a lollipop, it makes it all the more funny to me!

48. bucslim - January 31st, 2008 at 3:34 pm
I was wondering where I could purchase some cock soup.
A welcome respite from the bible comments.
49. hgaratie - January 31st, 2008 at 3:36 pm
Notice #20 says in small letters: Barf means snow. As if they knew how retarded it was and had to explain! LOL
50. Csimmons - January 31st, 2008 at 3:44 pm
I think the guys who made these names are the kids who ate paste in school.
51. Csimmons - January 31st, 2008 at 3:47 pm
I sure would like to know where vergina is sold
Id buy tons of it!
52. Mom424 - January 31st, 2008 at 3:54 pm
hey bucslim; sorry if i offended you in the bible fiasco, you kinda had to follow the kiwi-boi interjection. I was kinda hoping to deflect debate, failed miserably I gather, its still goin’.
53. bucslim - January 31st, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Offend me? No way man, or um wo-man. I just thought it was extremely funny that those terms came up in a Bible discussion.
54. Anonymous - January 31st, 2008 at 4:14 pm
Vergina lol
55. Dana - January 31st, 2008 at 4:19 pm
I’m just trying to figure out *what* that is pictured in #14!
56. Tlmabp - January 31st, 2008 at 5:32 pm
Vergina still sell in the streets specially on late night in clubs, but i dont buy it because I have my girlfriend who actually serve me some for free.
57. Dianne - January 31st, 2008 at 5:32 pm
I was cleaning out a dresser at my grandmother’s house and found a package of dress shields that were labeled “Gay Abandon Dress Shields”….
58. satori - January 31st, 2008 at 5:33 pm
The best thing about the “Shovit” is the thumbs up he’s making…it’s too perfect!
59. crimsonchrissi - January 31st, 2008 at 5:56 pm
OMFG Shito looks like- SHITO!!
60. Victoria - January 31st, 2008 at 5:57 pm
Are some of these american products?? I know some are not, but what of the others?
61. Nelia - January 31st, 2008 at 6:11 pm
I laughed for about ten minutes at the lemon barf. I mean… most of the other products are at least foreign, so it might not mean the same thing, how does lemon barf manage to get made?
62. Ashley - January 31st, 2008 at 6:27 pm
I actually own an erector set
63. Kelsi - January 31st, 2008 at 6:38 pm
Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard about the new and improved shito. I can’t even type it without giggling, which is probably annoying my roomate who is trying to do homework.
64. clashingthestars - January 31st, 2008 at 6:55 pm
Ha..Finger Marie. Brings back fond memories
65. corinthian0430 - January 31st, 2008 at 6:56 pm
ROTFLMAO!
66. stormy617 - January 31st, 2008 at 6:57 pm
LOL I just got home from work and I have to say this was a very good laugh to come home to but I must say you guys have me scared to go and check out the other new list.
67. corinthian0430 - January 31st, 2008 at 6:57 pm
This should be under NSFW… I can’t stop giggling!
68. Csimmons - January 31st, 2008 at 7:06 pm
I too have an erector set, and it ain’t small
69. Arabella - January 31st, 2008 at 7:22 pm
Ok so it’s bad enough that the product is called Fart, but it’s even worse that there’s a pic of an elephant too!!
70. goof_ball - January 31st, 2008 at 7:39 pm
NEW IMPROVED SHITO!
These are so funny! I want them to show people and make fun of them!
71. TheDragon - January 31st, 2008 at 7:40 pm
I think I’m going to get an Erector and then Wack Off my Woodii…
72. Monkey - January 31st, 2008 at 9:15 pm
DanOhh - LMAO That was clever!
Great list, but it would be nice to know where these products can be found…
73. someguy - January 31st, 2008 at 10:07 pm
on jay leno he has a similar list of bad product names and the one i can remember was a brand of cookies from belgium called chokies. mmmm!fart bar
74. chachachano - January 31st, 2008 at 11:14 pm
my dad used to work in a construction company named: erectors….
75. yong23 - February 1st, 2008 at 1:00 am
Barf…it means snow…?!
76. skipps - February 1st, 2008 at 1:24 am
Spicy Cock soup mix! And it’s authentic Jamaican too! YUM.
77. Ozhan - February 1st, 2008 at 2:04 am
About cemen… What does it mean in English?
I also havent heard Barf-Muffe-My Fannie-Schovit. And I see a virgin in Vergina.
Then again, English is my 2nd language.
Cheers…
78. satori - February 1st, 2008 at 2:37 am
ozhan-doesn’t translate very well-a lot of it is slang in english. I’ll try though…takes the fun out of it though…
barf= to vomit
Fannie= backside
Shovit= shove it (means sort of fuck off)
Vergina= is like vagina
Muffe= a slang term for vagina
79. Drogo - February 1st, 2008 at 2:45 am
I saw Barf on a site called thisisbroken.com. “Barf” does mean snow, but the company is in a hot desert country, Middle Eastern I think.
80. Ozhan - February 1st, 2008 at 2:45 am
Thx
81. Lev bez hrivy - February 1st, 2008 at 4:30 am
Ad 7: Believe it or not, I have stumbled upon empty Erektus on sidewalk can once while having romantic day with my girlfriend. We had a very good laugh
So, suffice to say, Erektus is not fake, believe me.
82. Mikerodz - February 1st, 2008 at 4:53 am
Satori: Maybe you can publish a directory or dictionary of those linggo. I remember a Japanese student made a mistake of entering a house by mistake and when he realized it was a wrong house he hurridly go our of the yard. The owner of the house saw him and said “freeze”. The guy continue to walk out so he was gunned down
83. satori - February 1st, 2008 at 5:02 am
OH MY GOD Mikerodz, that’s terrible!
84. Hemanth - February 1st, 2008 at 5:20 am
If you include japanese drinks, CALPIS would make this list. I bet Cal drinks a lot of water.
85. cryndigo - February 1st, 2008 at 9:19 am
lols these are funny.
86. MzFly - February 1st, 2008 at 1:22 pm
LMFAO!!! Pee cola and shito mix! HA!
87. jrjb - February 2nd, 2008 at 2:34 am
Finger Marie a song? Just kidding.
Happy crak popcorns - I think there’s a drug reference in there or a plumber mooning someone.
88. Philson - February 2nd, 2008 at 11:35 am
I have a pack of liquorice mints called “Nigroids”
they’re little black pellets too.
89. satori - February 3rd, 2008 at 7:48 am
So, if BARF means Snow, then when I throw up, is it snowing?
90. jocsboss - February 3rd, 2008 at 8:34 am
Nig comes from the Latin, nigra, meaning “black” or “dark”. Hence Nigeria, land of black people, or negro. Also the root of some offensive labeling.
91. Sirea - February 3rd, 2008 at 10:43 am
As funny as “Shito” sounds, it’s pretty much a normal-sounding Japanese word, combining the syllables “Shi” and “To”. I kind of found this one to be a little on the immature side since it is just a word from a language that’s different than ours, but the rest was amusing enough ^^
92. Csimmons - February 3rd, 2008 at 6:11 pm
Half of the guys who make these product names are more than likely retarded
93. Barb - February 6th, 2008 at 4:05 am
I LOVE a Golden gaytime. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm crunchy bits….
94. Glogi - February 8th, 2008 at 3:27 pm
The Megapussi is not a product name. Pussi means bag in finnish, so it is nothing else just a Megabag
But anyway that chips is really good 
95. Nik - February 11th, 2008 at 7:04 am
Barf means ice or snow in India and other South Asian countries
96. Richar Day - February 16th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
These names are so incredible. If you had not shown me the wrappers, I wouldn’t have believed that these would be names of products. Certainly, they are very funny. Nice collection.
97. Denzell - February 16th, 2008 at 8:44 pm
I would like to suggest Caronia Nail Polish: Passion for Color (if you ever heard of such a product). ahem… Okay, I’m not a girl, but I sure know that “caronia” is a vulgar latin word meaning “carcass”, or dead body.
98. DuckDaffy - February 23rd, 2008 at 2:47 pm
7. toolnut: Erektus is real energy drink from Pinelli company from Czech Republic.
http://www.pinelli.cz/Produkty.....Drink.html
And Semtex is energy drink too.
http://www.pinelli.cz/Produkty.....emtex.html
99. The General - March 12th, 2008 at 8:47 am
Re FART bar: “Orzech[ovy]” means “nut” in Polish. So you’ve got a nutty fart bar there!
100. Concerned Observer - March 16th, 2008 at 10:05 am
Lolz, may I suggest “Dickenbut” banana flavored crisps?
Oh, and JF, I know where you’re from
101. Concerned Observer - March 16th, 2008 at 10:07 am
But don’t worry, I won’t say.
102. Concerned Observer - March 16th, 2008 at 10:09 am
If you haven’t guessed, I’m just fishing for comments.
103. Cyn - March 16th, 2008 at 10:13 am
100. Concerned Observer
uh, yeah. so stop it.
104. NikPG - March 17th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
Cox & Kings a travel agency would also qualify I guess….
105. Lol - March 20th, 2008 at 11:16 am
In Montenegro, they sell biscuits called Noblice
I looled
106. forti - March 22nd, 2008 at 11:39 am
no. 12 is Polish and the word fart means a ’stroke of luck’.
I know a second hand shop named Fart, and though it’s supposed to mean ‘lucky’, my mind is too corrupted by English to ignore the double meaning. ^^;
107. warningdontreadthis - April 12th, 2008 at 6:20 am
Nr 2 is from norway and schovit from denmark XD
108. Lothenon - May 1st, 2008 at 11:30 am
There’s “Shovit” in billions of German households, as it’s sold in the largest supermarket chain in the country.
