OK go open Microsofts Used Cars then. Microsoft's trademark doesn't reference cars either. So lets see what happens.
My point clearly states "Intent". If the intent is to use the goodwill, fame, notoriety of someone's trademark to enhance the value of your business you have problems.

Microsoft is almost universally known at this point. They would have a great case for trademark dilution. Disney, Burger King, and Wal-Mart would also have good cases.
The Hun is not in the same league as them. There's no dilution because outside of the porn world, no one knows who The Hun.
You can open all kinds of The Hun stores and not be misusing The Hun's trademark...as long as they're not adult related.
