There was a website selling pens named penisland. but it might have been their marketing strategy I quess :P

Some problems with names of products in foreign countries:
Osram GmbH (lightbulb company) – where “osram” in polish language means “I’m gonna take a sh** (on something)”, or “I won’t give a sh** (about something)” :D

As for the rest I’m not sure if they are true, cause I don’t speak those languages:
Mitsubishi Pajero – where “pajero” is “wanker” in spanish
Toyota MR2 – where in french you read it like “Toyota est merde”, which means, “Toyota is sh**/filthy”
I also heard about cars named “nova”, that sold badly in Spain, cause it supposed to mean “no go”, but it turned out to be a myth :P

A simple solution:
Just make a sturct called MouseControls, and inside it put X, Y and Hit.

@Jake: Even I think I got that :P

@Eli: Hehee. As long as you stay away from stuff like Javascript or HTML (where anybody can read the variable names by visiting a page ;) – and code alone – you should be fine…

What exceptional accidents; I find myself constantly ending variables; whom I suspect I’ll only be using once, with suffixes that blend both just weird vowel sounds and curse words in new and exciting ways. I have this fear that one day, my variable names will matter and get me in some form of major trouble.

We shall see.

Also, as a side note, I feel naming a game Mous(hit) might be the perfect thing to do. haha…

When I made stock control/accounting systems the database had a table of countries called AL_Count.db. Try saying a shortened version of “Countries” with the same pronunciation…
