Makes it remind me of Invasion of the Body Snatchers or ‘Pod People From The Planet Pluto’ which is an alliterative phrase that has stuck in my head since childhood, but somehow I can’t find any reference to now.
Then there are the Pod portable storage containers. And I don’t think stuffing your parents or grandparents in a storage container sounds very personal or family friendly. (Although you can padlock them from the outside, so depending on your relationship…)
Definitely a bad name in my mind.

Didn’t the kid call the alien, Trumpy in that movie? Which sparked the MST3K, “Trumpy, you can do stupid things!”

Indeed. And Joel says, “I named you after Donald Trump.”
There are a number of Trump references scattered throughout the show’s 10-year run. None of them were complimentary.

Yup, I almost always refer to him as Trumpy, because he doesn’t deserve the respect of using his correct name and because he does indeed do stupid things.
