Ride the SLUT
When the city of Seattle decided to build a light rail system in the South Lake Union area of Seattle, they decided that it needed a trolley. So millions of dollars later and what do we get?
We get a SLUT.
The South Lake Union Trolley.
Before everything was done, someone realized that the acronym really wasn't appropriate. (For South Lake Union. In Downtown or Pioneer Square SLUT would have been useful. As in "Ride the SLUT to get to your prostitute.")
So they ended up changing the name to the South Lake Union Street Car.
Not as nice a name.
You can order your own SLUT t-shirt here. Creepy looking guys not included.

I tried to order from Kapowl
I tried to order from Kapowl Coffee and It was complicated and confusing. So I saw a blog that said donkeyts.com has them in stock ready to ship. I used a coupon code "jamie" and got 20% off plus free shipping. The shirt came in 3 days plus I got to pick the shirt color and type.

Wouldn't someone think of that?
You have to wonder if that wasn't someones idea of a bad joke that that name even got as far as it did. How could you have missed that if you were planning for the trolley? At some point wouldn't someone say let's shorten the name... and ended up with the locally famous acronym.
