1. Woman Blames GPS After Driving Her Car Into A Sand Trap 
Perhaps after spending too much time at the nineteenth hole, a woman in Northbridge, Massachusetts drove her car into a sand trap on a golf course. She was unable to extricate herself without going well over par. This was, of course, not her fault. Her car's malfunctioning GPS navigational system was to blame. Northbridge Police Officer Randy Lloyd wrote in his report that her GPS had told her to turn left. She stated that this left brought her into a "cornfield" and once she was in the "cornfield" she kept driving, trying to get out of her "cornfield." Life is tough sometimes.

Sometimes comic book writers come up with a great character – the powers are all there, the backstory, the design – and then they go to name them. Now, I’m not talking about their real name, but their alter-ego. Sometimes all the amazing powers in the world don’t matter when you saddle a character with a terrible name. Sometimes they fix this for the character down the line, but often the character is stuck with this name for as long as they’re in print. Here are some of the best (worst) ones I could think of.
