Dumb Product Name

There's a commercial that comes on TV about a product called "aciphex" that's supposed to help with stomach gas, I think.

AcipHex.com—Official AcipHex Website-Learn about heartburn and acid reflux disease

The reason I say "I think" is because every time I hear the commercial, I and they say "aciphex", what I hear is: "ass effects", which makes me laugh like a 12 year old boy.

Say "aciphex" fast a few times, what do you hear?

You can pretty much fill in any punchline for "ass effects" and it will be funny.

Anyone else see the commercial and think the same thing I did? Is this REALLY the best name for a product that is supposed to help with gas?

And who came up with this name?

    That is pretty comical. It would have been fun to be in that meeting...


    Here's another name that didn't pan out although no-one could have seen this coming.

    I forget the names but I am always laughing after they must have made some law that they have to state the side-effects.

    Like who would take something that: (sic)

    ' may cause bloating, dizziness, headaches, nausea and sometimes liver failure'.

    But the one that reeeeeeally gets me is some ambulance chaser lawyers:

    'if you have had a heart attack, stroke or even died because of XXXXX you are entitled to receive money yadayadayada'

    OK man, I'm coming back from the grave to get my money, darn it, pay up.

    warning: this may be off topic.
