i feel like a good business idea would be showing new product names / logos to a group of 50 people from various demographics and ages to see if the name clashes with something else. bc this one quite quite funny

This project predates the song i assume you're referring to by 2 or 3 years

It made me think of the old wireless application protocol stuff - WAP. I did create a site in WML around 2002 but all i remember is a structure.

“WOP” and “Wapp” are as different from each other as as “can’t” and “cunt”.
