You know The Culture novels by Iain M Banks, right? How it has sentient starships that choose ironic names for themselves like these;

  • Sanctioned Parts List
  • So Much For Subtlety
  • All Through With This Niceness And Negotiation Stuff
  • Attitude Adjuster
  • Of Course I Still Love You
  • Funny, It Worked Last Time...

Well, if you pay attention, you can notice starships hiding in plain sight all around you. Here's a few from recent years;

  • Alternative Facts
  • Sigma Grindset
  • The Woke Mind Virus Is Either Defeated Or Nothing Else Matters
  • Girlboss
  • Basket Of Deplorables
  • Are We The Baddies?
  • I Am Not A Robot (Click To Confirm)

In this thread I want to know; what starship names have you spotted in the wild?
