That's how I feel with some dependency-heavy projects I encounter.
Particularly in the Rails and JavaScript package-spheres, every other library has an incomprehensible name that turns out to be an obscure reference to some pop-culture thing (and often some other library as well, to make it even more undecipherable).
I guess it's fun for the developers and makes their résumé look more interesting ("I made a process monitor called Stiglitz, it's named after a Tarantino character!"). But it's tiresome for the person who has to read the code where these characters go about their exciting adventures updating database records, concatenating strings and sending email.
