I'm going to be a LOT careful with my suggestions from now on.

But, it is actually an intriguing category. I kind of like Alan
Browne's take. Maybe something that is "bad" in some way, but
otherwise slightly interesting. Like, say, Barstow:

I was and am aware that it was posed as a joke, but I liked
it! Something we can have some fun with, no question about
