Recent products I've actually seen: Retardex and Negroid.
I am sure there are good reasons for these names; I just can't figure out what they are!

Two writers stop e-mailing each other about what irks them in publishing, teaching, and other realms, and start sharing their thoughts online.
About Us
- Peeves and Rants
- We're Curly Curmudgeon and Prunella Peeve, writers who became friends in graduate school. For the past few years we've maintained our transatlantic friendship mainly via e-mail, where we often share pet peeves and rants about aspects of writing, publishing, teaching, and many other topics. Now we're making it all public. Why? We're not entirely sure. But we hope to find at least a few more like-minded friends in cyberspace.

what were the proudcts with these names for.
Negroid was something for the throat and Retardex was a mouthwash or something similar.
