The first two, "Old Cheddar Fort", and "Classic Guacamole Classique", are probably my favorite.

I can't remember a specific example, but there's also instances where the French adjective is exactly the same as the English adjective, so you get two identical adjectives assaulting a single word from both sides. I think directional signage has a danger factor of doing that...

I feel sorry for the n-controller guys. Too many people are mistaking them for the marketing group they hired.

It's cool.

Their new marketing/PR guys will salvage it.  Maybe.
