Rebecca,
In the UK, we have a soda (UK word: pop) called, Pussy - in some supermarkets and independent shops, the cans are labelled as "P***y" and uncensored in other stores (even though the logo is an outline of a cat's head.
It's actually a nice flavour of passion fruit and mango. and it's carbonated too. So, who fancies a (can of) fizzy Pussy? - LOL 😂 😂 😂 😂
You forgot the Australian cheese, I wont mention names. KSI made a video about it and he got pissed. That is why I disliked your video.
"You'll definitely turn heads when you have KUM in your hair". HOW did that make it in the commercial!?!?!?!
They knew what they were doing
Obviously it was on purpose.
I died laughing lol
Next level weird: There are, apparently, Texan-born Australians judging from the female narrator for that commercial...
I’d be like what the hell
These products could have been perfectly advertised in a GTA game.
God damn right says Impotent Rage
Lol
lol
heavy metal health care 😂
XD
The Wunder Boner should've come with a companion bait and tackle box called the "master baiter."
Is there such a product called the master baiter?
@@victorhernandez8723 Probably will be someday.
🤣🤣🤣
Underrated comment
Yes
Wonderboner: "My wife would like that!" I almost fell out of my chair.
I fell of my Bed when I heard that😂
Mmmmmh I’m sure she would! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
*Wunderboner. With a "u"
Refuse to believe they didn't know exactly what they were doing with that one.
I laughed so hard that I almost threw up. 😂 😂 😂
Either the people naming these products really had no clue, or they were totally trolling.
Sometimes the line between stupid on purpose and stupid by accident is a bit blurry.
Or didn't care. Marvel has a character named Knull, you can go ahead and Google Translate that from Swedish... The creator did a Google search but decided not to care... Everybody in Scandinavia thinks it's funny AF 😁
@@AlwaysMegaHot hahahahaha I just googled it hahahahahaha
@@AlwaysMegaHot just got back from Google Translate and 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@AlwaysMegaHot Thank you, that was a genuine LOL, I actually needed it too.
"You'll definitely turn heads when you have K.U.M. in your hair!" THHEEYYY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE FUCKING DOING
LMAO
In Colorado, there is a chain of convenience stores called Kum N Go.
We have them in ND as well ;) Always makes for good jokes.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! Really, dude?! What drugs where they on? Because I wanna try them!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes they are an Iowa staple as well.
Iowa too
Ayee
I always tell my wife that they need to hire high school kids and pitch the name to see if they laugh. Like an immature focus group.
You know what? That's actually a good idea.
I've always believed that for the names for generic medicine they hired comedians Jerry Lewis to scream gibberish at people. AHHHHOYOY!! WOOOWW! LAAADY!! ACETAMINOPHEN!! HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE!!!
@@ro4eva True.
Penguins, love your sense of humor and this may be a real thing!
Went shopping for some cemen dip and clerk put it in a D-Bag.
I found KUM products in a dollar store while out with my adult son. Both of us have a twisted sense of humor, so we took pictures (amongst our *very loud snort-tittering* which aroused the clerk's curiosity) and I posted them on my fb... 😂
The clerk was probably wondering why there were pigs in the shampoo aisle
@@harukoharuhara1863 Then you must be a weasel
@@samuniemi9182she has a really annoying laugh in the anime, so that's completely fair
When I was in college, there was a female softball
team called "Nads". Funny to hear people shout
"Go Nads ! " ( true story....)
And do you know who was one of their cheerleaders? George W Bush! I kid you not! It was the only sporting activity that he did at College.
A football show in Australia bought a racing greyhound and raced it for charity. They called it Nads… Of course you know what the cheer was.
I couldn't stop laughing at these.
Same
Me too
😂 same here bro
Me too
Your all nasty. Welcome to my world
"You'll definitely turn heads when you have KUM in your hair" 🤣🤣
I mean, you def will
😂😂😂 *My hubby and I are in our early 50's...yet, while watching this video, we are both laughing like a pair of 13 year olds. Thank you Watchmojo!!!* 😂😂😂
I’ve eaten the finger Marie biscuits. They sold them in Britain but they were given a different name. They were actually very nice and I’m shocked that it had such a terrible name overseas.
They're very popular in Sweden as well (as Guld Marie = Gold Marie)¸ and I never liked them since frankly they just taste like cardboard, to me anyway :P
I was in tears laughing at the Kum hair stuff. The visual joke from the movie was bad enough, but hearing it advertised just killed my sides. Cemen Dip left me out of breath. I love being juvenile at heart. What the hell was that last one though? That was such a mouthful of hilarity.
The funniest line in this bit was probably "You'll definitely turn heads when you have cum in your hair."
Pussy wind = a mouthful of hilarity 😝😳
Wunder boner and crea mass made me lose it, way too old to be laughing at that but damn it's funny
"Guaranteed to turn heads when you have K.U.M. in your hair"
Yeah, I guess you would 🤣🤣🤣
Did anyone think "There's Something About Mary" with that one?
It’s probably because the ad was made before the internet started making dirty jokes
I'm surprised that the UK's popular puding "Spotted Dick" is not on the list :D
Spotted Dick isn't a registered brand name
@@johnnycalvino7490 Neither was Finger Marie!
Etymological, the same root word as 'dough' and even 'dog.' All of these are starchy puddings, boiled in cloth bags for long cook times. The spots come from currants or raisins mixed in for flavor.
The fact she didn’t say Cemen Dip says something about the product itself
Butthead: Hey Bevis...check it out...she said NADS
Bevis: OHHHHHH Yeah
Here we are, ADULTS laughing at 15-year-old boy humor. And lovin' it!!
I’m actually allergic to something in that product
*Beavis with an "a" in between. And "Nads" is short for "Gonads" The main reproductive organs.
I never thought I’d ever hear “Try AIDS” but here we are. 😐
Try Ayds*.
Get it right.
@@EarthsGeomancer You don't have to be mean about it.
I found this commercial out from the Nostalgia Critic.
Haven’t done much online gaming, have you? Lol
@@togepreee who me?
I'm surprised BIMBO wasn't on the list.
Yes, that's actually a thing. I think they make pastries.
Sliced bread as well
One of the most known whitebread and general pastry brands here in Portugal
It's a completely innocent word in Italian, meaning little kid.
Yup. Mexican company iirc.
I love their snacks. They are like Mexican hostesses
I lived in South Korea while teaching at a University. Two of the many popular drinks in South Korea are Human Sweat and Cool Pis. Spelled just like that. 😳
😂😂
China had a drink called "Sweat" It was basically sugar water, but pretty good on a hot day. I don't know if it was related to the South Korean Product
Japan has Pocari Sweat and Cal Pis.
@@LathropLdST I feel like you guys are kidding me!
So happy Rebecca voiced this! No-one else can deliver the feeling of cringe in their voice like she can! MY HEROINE
"Finger Marie" Who's Marie and I want to hear her consent first.
McVities be like: JUST DO IT!!
@@kousikadhikary No, that’s Nike you’re thinking of.
@@sophiefrancis8295 I was referring to the product's name. I know its not their moto.
@@kousikadhikary It was a joke.
@@sophiefrancis8295 Wasn't the product real?
"My wife would like that" 😂😂😂
what. Kum in her hair?
YOU KNOOOOOOOW!

So many "That's what she said!" opportunities in this video.
If you're laughing at Nad's in this video, imagine seeing the ads on television multiple times each day, every day of the week...

R-rated movies did have merchandise for the child demographic.
The '80s and '90s were full of Terminator, Robocop, and yes, Predator action figures among other items.
They also had cartoon shows. I know Conan did.
Good times.
Yes, every so often a controversy erupts over an R-rated movie having licensed children’s toys based on characters in the film it it all seems one selective in what R-rated films cause outrage. Many R-rated films get licensed children’s toys without much controversy. I think in his case the fact that the Alina franchise is a horror series plays a role though Freddie Krueger blade gloves and Jason Vorhees hockey masks have been kids Halloween costume staples for along time so even R-rated horror films get a pass sometimes too. Come on oral guardians, have some consistency as to what you object to when It comes toys based on R-rated movie characters other elements.

Don't forget Rambo.
Mother Fücker’s was a brand that deliberately created a name that would grab the eye of a potential buyer. I remember seeing Mother Fücker Cookies right next to the cashier stand when’re I had to buy gas or go into a convenience store in the 80s in Boston. Their tag line was: “The second surprise is how good they taste.”
Did you buy some?
Now that's a genius marketing strategy!
At least these knew what they were going for and did it on purpose
It's pronounced Motherfewkers
Missed opportunity to use a Beavis and Butthead clip for the Nads one😂
Almost 20 minutes of pure laughter. My head hurts. 😂😂
Which ones
Wasn’t that funny tbh
“Dry Sack Sherry” 😂😂😂😂 that is all.
Mr. Ed's Sausage, sold in south Louisiana. My husband and I worked for LSU in the early '90's, and always saw that product in the grocery stores. I did some investigating, and found that the company really had been founded by a man named Ed. In the south, it is good maners to address older adults as Mr. or Miss, followed by their first name. Thus, this product name. We never bought it. I knew there was no horse in there, but I couldn't stop picturing a talking Palomino in the sausage factory.
"D-bag. You have 21 other names you could've chosen."
What about T-bag?
"Apparently, it tasted awful too."
It's cold medicine; it's the law.
I was always told that the worse they taste, the better they work
Delsum grape flavor- love it. Last used in November.
Cold medicine is supposed to taste good? Lol
I’ve had the original one that was in a glass bottle and yellow. Not the one in this video. It was truly awful. Worse than other cold medicines. At least other ones make them sweet and a certain flavor (grape, bubble gum, etc.). But nope - no flavor and not sweet.
I'll bet it tasted like hell. . . . . .
There is a Finnish bread called Jussipussi
Where can I get this bread?
For research purposes.
~_~
Sounds like Meg and Cardis type of bread.
There also used to be this candy called Neekerin Pusu until someone complained the name being somehow racist or something.
Lil Wayne loves this bread! LOL
I’ve heard of that! Why didn’t that make the list?
Bimbo bread is always a good one. It even says "Pronounced BEEMBO" on the package
By far Watchmojo's funniest and most original entry ! Very, very informative too. Fantastic job, guys !
In Switzerland and Germany you have the Fugen (That area between tiles where you put Silicon) Ass (Ace). Hardware stores sell the Fugen Ass to help apply silicone to your bath or kitchen.
I tgink it's called Grout in English. 🤔
"You'll definitely turn heads when you have KUM in your hair" Yes I'm sure you will.
I had a GREAT laugh over the product WACK OFF being used by the ARMED Services. Wink wink.😉
We loved Ayds back in the 60’s. Problem was, this little chubber here could eat the whole box.
My granny used to keep a box or 3....i remember chocolate and maybe lighter colored one...carmel maybe? I remember them being greasy tasting.
@@jacksonrileyjones Think that was a lite wax coating on the chocolate & caramels. That may explain the taste 😉 of AYDS dietaries!!!. That was back in 1960s.
I remember them tried thy once nearly ate the whole box 🤣 ii
My mom always had a box of these around, us kids would sneak one when running by. They actually weren't that bad but I never saw my mom or any of the house moms lose any weight from them.
I wish Beavis and Butt-Head were narrating this...
Lmao, the video would be 10 minutes longer because of the laughter.
Ha
Ha ho ha he ho hi hu
“She said sack” uh heah huh
@@Ocasio-CortezPrez At LEAST...they would have been stuck on Nads for 10 minutes alone.
If only K.U.M had a “no more tears” option I’d certainly use it.
"I think Preparation H feels good on the whole". - Dr. Evil
Ben Gay for certain men
“Why not try Ayds???” 👀
"loose the weight fast, with Ayds!"
To be fair to Ayds, it was named that ong before the disease AIDS was discovered and named. The Ayds manufactures were victims of whomever choose to name it AIDS In the first place.
Some of this almost look like a joke the simpsons would pull
Or South Park.
Preferably Bart Simpson.

I was listening to Vicky Gabereau on CBC radio when Hong King was returned to China. She was interviewing the editor of the South China News, the only English language paper at that time. He said that there were three names he always liked. The Hung Phat Bra Company, the Lee Kee Boat Company and he swore that you can worship at the Shir Lee Temple on an island in the inner harbour.
When I went to high school in Denmark, one of my teachers told an amusing story. The queen of England came to Copenhagen on a visit and toured the Tuborg brewery. Someone who was familiar with English decided to cover some of the elevator signage at the brewery to avoid embarrassing the poor girl. When you pushed a button to summon the elevator, a sign would light up to let you know the elevator was in transit. The Danish expression for "in transit" is "i fart".
Hahahaha 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
That's interesting because the German word "Fahrt" means a drive or a trip, and lends itself to similar jokes from clueless Anglophones 😁.
"Trekstor" Isn't that the gift shop on the USS Enterprise?
There’s only one media quote to sum this list up: “Good night, everybody!”
Lol
Read in his voice lol
@John Wright Yup
Mmmmwah!
I’m so happy to see Lovesac make the honorable mentions. The first time I saw it I broke out laughing. I hate loading them onto delivery vans though. They almost always come in sets of 19 or 27 it seems.
Also, there’s a lovely instrument called the P-bone which is a plastic trombone
Narrator: Nope, I'm not gonna say that!
Me: Fair enough....
A bit prudish in my opinion. When you make a video on it, why not pronounce it.
Many years ago, I visited a US air base in Greenland. There was an advert for a child's paging system on the television : "my mommy used to worry about me, but not anymore, because I wear the Little Bugger"! We Brits fell about. Our American colleagues couldn't understand why.
I went to a birthday party at my sister's house, back in the '60s, where a British boy who was visiting the neighbors was asked by one of my nephews, "Don't you ever wear long pants?" and of course, couldn't figure out why the kid laughed---and I sniggered. (Funny thing is, "de-pants" is the American slang for your "de-bag." Go figure.) Stay safe.
I got it. Thanks, Sir Terry!
And the Australians were sitting there thinking it was entirely appropriate as for that product to be needed the kid was a little bugger.
I'm generally a dirty-minded S.O.B. but I never thought about the Brother P-Touch like that!
Me either, and I've had one for years. I'm still not sure why it's supposedly bad.
I wash my hands with soap afterwards.
i'm generally a dirty-minded B., but neither did i.
I had an asthma attack 2 seconds into the video because I was laughing so hard at "why not try aids?" 😂😂😂☠️
I know that one of the original transformers is a Dinobot named “Slag”. Apparently that word means a loose woman in the UK so his new name’s “Slug”.
There was also a Transformer that was named Spastic. It had to be changed.
Did you ever try dragon ball z👨💻
Honestly the Reebok Incubus just sounds cool. I'd totally wear that
I had a pair of those or similiar....the tongue was pumpable, giving you a better, more firmer fit.
I gonna say Finger Marie is a funny and hilarious name in all the time imagine if eating it
Is it chocolate covered?
aw yeah 😎
i have FINGER MARIE🤪 👋👧
my favorite food 😋
Eating Marie?!
Imagine any biscuit or cookie brand having the words finger and any female name on it
Actually I find the name quite nice. In Holland we have long fingers as cookies, in France various cookies have Marie in the name. Maybe if they call them Marie's fingers it would be best. A little second degree in a product name is likely good for the sales.
8:01 For those who are wondering, the “Fischer’s automatische gußstahlkugelfabrik” translates as “Fischer’s automatic cast steel ball factory.”
As someone from Germany I am very impressed how good the narrator pronounced it...
Why couldn’t they have gone with the translation instead?
“You’ll turn heads with K.U.M. in your hair!”
Yes, yes you will.
I wonder how many takes it took Rebecca to get it right on that last product. I was my laughing my ass of for minutes 😂
Soooo the marketing team for Ayds really couldn't come up with a totally different name to keep their product on the shelves?? I suppose they just ABSOLUTELY had to keep Ayds in the name. I guess that's the bottom line because Stone Cold said so. 💀
They were around for 50 years before the health professionals decided to rename GRID to AIDS. Why should they be forced to change a name they used for half a century?
Then there’s Schiit Audio a high end audio company from California (which is pronounced exactly as you’d think). The name is quite intentional and it is so well known among audiophiles that no one even smirks at the name.
It sounds like a place that would sell those stupid fart remotes, y'know press a button and it makes a fart noise
When I see reviews for their product in audio magazines they are usually preceded by an apology.
"You'll definitely turn heads with kum in your hair" - they definitely knew what they were doing...
Watchmojo idea:
Top 10 As Seen on TV products we look back on.
Did that
Bengay. It’s literally a caveman telling someone his friend Ben is gay.
That what a guy named Ben in my 4th grade class had to deal with for a few days when he was first enrolled. But since he was big for a normal 4th grader, being called Bengay didn't last long.
Or it could be caveman talk for "My name is Ben, and I'm gay."
Hahahaha 😆 I don't know why that's funny, but it is
Hahahahahahha "yes! Yes! Yes!" "Sexy" are words that work perfectly with Kum
I was sure you wouldn't mention AYDS but there it was. In the 70s my Mom and Grandma were big consumers. I don't know if it was a national commercial or not but in the 80s the company defended the name by saying "we were here first!"
Well basically we have dirty mind in most of these products!!
Ayds is still the winner only due to poor timing
I had a friend in public school whose mother made candy. One day, she made suckers and their last name was "Cott". Of course being 11 and 12 year old boys, they became known as Cott-Suckers. His mother was not impressed and the candy train stopped for a while.
I worked for an molecular coating firm that did business with FAG in the late-2000’s. When they’d ent corporate reps to Tampa, I stood at Tampa International Airport with a sign that said ‘FAG’. I printed it using their font/logo, but it still drew some stares.
Samuel L. Jackson would enjoy the #8 spot on this list.
🤣
This list made me laugh so hard. I haven’t laughed this hard in a while. Thank you MoJo for giving me the huge laugh i needed.
You are the best.
At work we have a printer that prints stickers for our online orders. The company that sends us the stickers for the printer is call Sticky Point of Sale, or as abbreviated on the box, Sticky P.O.S.!
Oh man this was one of the funniest videos I've seen in a while. What on God's good earth were they thinking?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣😨😨 I just love how she was like "Yeah I'm not saying that" to Cemens Dip. Honourable mention Siemens right there.
You will always turn heads when you have Kum in your hair, that can't be an accident
When I heard that tagline, I had the same thought.
Can we do top ten stupid requests by watch mojo fans
There is none
Yeah starting with this comment SMH
@@jimbo9208 but dude don’t you remember my request
P-Touch is actually a really good product. As far as any ‘double meaning’ I never picked it up.
I laughed so hard at "Marie ya wanna go home?" 😂
How did they skip Dietz Nuts? They're literally marketed as "meat nuts"!!!
finger marie make me remember about the prince joke in animaniacs
IT FUCKING DOES. The look that Prince gives Dot before she throws him away though...LOL
Yakko: Good Night, Everybody!!!
The "why not try aids?" jump scare had me ded 😂😂😂
When researching the #1 on this list to see if it was an actual product I highly recommend searching by the product name Rexona instead of pussy wind. Mistakes were surely made.
Ayds: is a successful wait loss supplement
Also ayds: goes bankrupt due to aids
Corona beer: *chuckles* “I’m in danger”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Corona dropped from 1,80€ to under 1€ per bottle here in the pandemic because after 9x 4-6 weeks of lockdowns everyone had enough of corona and even refused to buy things with the name in it.
Dry Sac as a sherry name has been around since Shakespeare’s time.
This has to be one of the funniest videos I’ve ever watched by Watchmojo🤣!
This was very entertaining and informative.
Poopsie has a weird name but it’s a toy
Now as a Black Woman, how TF did I hear product #19 & let that shit roll over me that quickly cuz I jus Laughed so hard into a couple tears 😭😭😭 Man they were so damn slick!!!
ok you get some serious respect for making me bust out laughing in the first five seconds of the video XD
Awesome. I laughed all the way through thank you. I have subbed.
ibeat blaxx, really no one noticed an issue there before release? They probably decided it real fast cause they were running late to a clan rally
I think some of these companies just wanna see what they can get away with.
I think they pronounce things different since it's a German product
They were obviously trying to come up with a cool sounding name in English, there is nothing German about this, just Germans trying to sound cool and ending up with something embarrassing, it's common these days. English words sneak into the German language, mostly used by idiots.
I feel like Rebecca jumped at the chance to host this episode LOL
Lord! I'm addicted to this channel right now. This is like my seventh one and it's almost 4:00am.
I'm dying over here. This is one of the funniest videos I've seen in a while. 😂😂😂
