I have yet to hear someone say "I've just Dysoned the carpet"

…continuing the eponym theme, it will make my day when someone warns me "Mind you don't step in the Dyson!"

We are all guilty.

Engineers talk of shafts being Brinelled, but at least we crossed rivers by a ford before cars were invented.

But dry your shoes before walking on the Axminster!

I'm not walking on my Axminster… It's a lathe not a kitchen step!

Interesting. Not only do we now have 'Vax' with potentially multiple meanings, we have for a long time had 'Pax' which could mean either peace or passengers. Wonder what will be next??
