If it doesn't bother you and you don't think it will bother others, how is it tasteless?

> The name has a clear connection to what it names

So Murder Engine is fine then.

The desire to clutch one's pearls in disgust over any little thing is showing up a lot in this thread, I think.

not really, but I guess arguing with you about it is pointless as you are either ignoring or not understanding the points I am making and instead try to exaggerate things by implying that finding something tastless means much more then it does

If you're unable to articulate why something is tasteless beyond "because I think it is", it sounds like you're sort of just making things up.

Which is fine. Clutch those pearls. But maybe examine your behavior as well?

except that I did explain, but you just pretend that part doesn't exist

and somehow after I did you started becomming all provocative and manipulative in how you phrased sentences so that it seems I sayed/mean/think things I do no

so idk. by I don't think I'm the person with the problem here

You're being weirdly aggressive about this. I think they explained themselves pretty well. I don't agree with them at all but they have said how they felt and why.
I asked a clarifying question and then made an assertion about a behavior. I personally wouldn’t call that “aggressive”, but to each their own I suppose.
