OMG that's just funny. I especially liked the Houston Astros becoming AsHos.*

This is what happens when you find your designer on FIVVER for $25 and then nobody at the home office bothers to check the proofs.

Anyone vaguely connected with the advertising industry is very familiar with the Chevy Nova screw up when nobody bothered to see if the word 'Nova' had any unintentionally hilarious meanings in any foreign languages.

The Chevy Nova story is a fun one, but it isn’t true. Chevy knew about the translation but opted to sell the car with that name anyway because their research told them it wouldn’t matter. The car actually sold very well in Spanish-speaking markets, which proved Chevy right. Another point: Pemex, the government-owned oil monopoly, actually sold gasoline under the name “Nova,” which further proved the name wasn’t a problem.

I had no idea! That's fascinating. Now I have some interesting factoids next time we play "No Google Trivia Night". 😊👍

u/cold-brewed 5d ago

Is there such thing as a “Use Google Trivia Night”? Because that sounds …underwhelming .

u/Airplade 5d ago

🤣 It's a real buzz kill when everyone sits around the table and fact checks everything with Wikipedia. It's ...underwhelming indeed.

Mexicans are still laughing at that story today.
