I’m thinking things like “Same-sung” For Samsung, because all their products look kinda generic and boring, or Ford standing for “Fix Or Repair Daily” because of the engineering and build quality, or “McDiabetes”, for obvious reasons.

Interesting. For as long as I’ve been alive, it hasn’t been legal here (UK) for a brand to specifically name and disparage another brand in their advertising like that. (This doesn’t apply to political parties, for “reasons”, but I digress.)
That is, I’m not sure how it came to be in my head. I had thought I had come up with it independently, but I have to admit there’s a chance I’ve seen someone else use it over the intervening decades, and it has ultimately come from the advertising you’re quoting.
