I believe you -- though no reference to anything other than Fedora
appears in the top Google searches for that phrase -- but the fact that
nobody outside the US gets the joke should perhaps tell you something.
Not that it's offensive (people can be offended at anything) but that
it's so obscure as to be completely meaningless. No wonder people try
and put interpretations on it.

Fedora version names don't matter to anyone, until suddenly they do and
not in a good way. Best get rid of them.
