Every law in America is called something like "Forcibly Rigging Every Election and Harassing Underage Girls (Sexually)" and the media are like, "sure, yes, the FREE HUGS Act, no reason to call it anything else"
Trump: "Think of it. So you have a thing called 'Save America Act. Save America Act.' And Schumer is gonna say, 'I oppose it.' How do you oppose save America? This is simply on voting. Voter ID. We want a statement that you are a citizen of America. And no mail in ballots."

These companies really do think the word "agentic" sounds cool, and does not at all sound like it should mean "evocative of the smell of bleach in a dentist's waiting room while you wait to be called in for a root canal"
"The cleaners did a great job, but the agentic smell hasn't cleared yet"

People forget this is what the film actually looked like when it first came out. It wasn't until decades later that CGI was invented and George Lucas was able to put out the remastered version with the plane in it
