The description of the repo is &quot;A compendium of absurd &quot;open-source&quot; licenses.&quot; Which I think is relevant to change the title to (the addition of the word &quot;absurd&quot; specifically.<p>The word &quot;bad&quot; is also used several times, and can be argued is also useful to put in the title

The passive aggressive license allows you to do anything with the licensed files except for execute them or binaries created from them. I know it’s a joke, but I’ll ask anyway, do you ever need a license to execute code? I thought copyright was all about the right to make and distribute copies.

While I understand these are mostly jokes, I do not like the racist and sexist one.

The &quot;The Don&#x27;t Ask Me About It License&quot; honestly sounds like a good one, right up there with the good luck with that shit license.
