Bad Starship Names

U.S.S. Scum of the Earth
(Wasn’t that a band??)

U.S.S. Sexual Transmissio
U.S.S. Sexual Healing

"Captains Log, stardate 1982.10 Marvin Gaye commanding"

'Scum of the Earth' was a fake band that was in an episode (Hoodlum Rock) of WKRP in Cincinnati.

You know what's sad? I knew instantly who they were without searching the Intertubes, but for those who don't remember:

With that in mind ^^^
