Funny names of things 10:13 - Sep 12 with 1868 views | The_Flashing_Smile | Lady Dollers sent me a link to a lamp she likes. "Haha, this is a joke right?" said I. "No, what's wrong with it?" "Have you seen the name of it?" "No?" "The Fatboy Boll*ck!?" Not a joke, an expensive lamp in a fancy design shop. Whoever named this must've been on a windup? Their last day or something? Fatboy's the brand name so fair enough for that bit... https://www.latzio.com/bolleke-spherical-lamp |  |

"No va" literally translates to "wont go". Hence, in Europe it was known as the Corsa. |  |
