* Some of Salvador Dali's paintings have ridiculously specific (but [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|precisely accurate]]; they belong to ''[[True Art Is Incomprehensible|that]]'' [[True Art Is Incomprehensible|kind of art]]) titles: ''Apparition of a Face and Fruit Dish on a Beach'', ''Face of Mae West Which May Be Used as an Apartment'', ''Slave Market with the Disappearing Bust of Voltaire'', ''Gala Contemplating the Mediterranean Sea Which at Twenty Meters Becomes the Portrait of Abraham Lincoln'', ''One Second Before Awakening from a Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee Around a Pomegranate''...

Depending on the size and positioning of the dealer's emblem, that could mean a row of plastic badges stretching ''all the way'' from the left edge of the trunk lid to the keyhole halfway across.
* [[YouTube Poop]] tends to feature these kinds of titles, combined with either an [[Intentionally Awkward Title]] or [[Word Salad Title]] (for instance ''Krobo's Voluptuous Cooking Program'' or ''The Grinch Excites Himself Onto A Christmas Tree'').
