What's in a name? Less than you'd think

Perception is All.

[Dons, Here's the 5£ Argument you paid for-hat]
Snopes is being a bit pecksniffish to dismiss entirely the meme
--how do you count? "Didn't buy because why would I buy from a Mfg. this obtuse?"
--as to micro-accént-disassembly: is Snopes unaware that ANY word which (contains 2 or more sub-words) is grist for being examined for Ha-Ha's?
This is not just a Murican affliction (I more than wot, from some experience of Español-punsterism)
ALL play-with-words (except Repos, who merely seek to incorporate -Evil- within ordinary common ones. Stunted imaginations correlate with one-track-brains.)

Snopes' worthiest 'correction' I accept: that in-fact Chevy Didn't 'measure' any decline in sales because of this meme.
They could not count the no-shows, actually/obviously. I don't really care though, if the original assertion has less than sterling-truthiness:

It was still A Hoot (for those of us who will stoop to punniness long after Age 10.)
So.. it's a Win/Whine situation, eh?
