It's 100% RFC 1178 compliant, and has the big advantage that it is almost
never in use on any network I belong to, so my home machines are always
called some variant of "skunk", and my work machines too when I get to
pick their names (not often, nowadays).
Also, it makes people laugh.

Is a chair finely made tragic or comic? Is the portrait of Mona Lisa
good if I desire to see it? Is the bust of Sir Philip Crampton lyrical,
epical or dramatic? If a man hacking in fury at a block of wood make
there an image of a cow, is that image a work of art? If not, why not?
