Time to rebrand

I was watching TV last weekend and saw the commercial  for Acorn Stairlifts again and again. They likely stuck with me because I realize that one of those would never work in my home (my staircase turns three times).

The commercial goes on and on about how a tumble down the stairs could be deadly to a senior citizen and the best fall is no fall at all (I don't know that they put it as poetically as I do, but that's the gist).

Why, then, is the company named Acorn, something that, BY ITS VERY NATURE, FALLS OUT OF A DAMN TREE?!

That's why we don't have Knocked-Up Condoms, Break-Down Auto Parts, No-Signal Wireless.

I could go on. You know I could.

But I think I've made my point.
