Imagine Your Product Being A Category On Pornhub
When your framework gets so popular that it becomes a legitimate category on adult websites, you know you've either made it or cursed an entire generation of developers. "peg" sitting right there between the mainstream categories is the kind of brand recognition most startups dream about – just maybe not in this exact context. For context: Peg.js is a parser generator for JavaScript, and seeing it casually listed as a category is the ultimate "task failed successfully" moment. The devs probably wanted widespread adoption, but I'm guessing this wasn't part of the marketing roadmap. Then again, any publicity is good publicity, right? Right? Nothing says "we've penetrated the market" quite like literally being on Pornhub's navigation bar. The SEO team must be having a field day trying to explain those traffic spikes.

"ANUS is too tight, needs LUBE" and "Add penetration tests" aren't bugs—they're features of accidental innuendo. The best part? These are legitimate technical requests with completely innocent intentions that sound absolutely filthy out of context. Naming your repo is truly the most consequential decision a developer will ever make.
