Yeh! A variable star with a very long dim period, followed by an intense, but, short brightening. Recurrent Nova kind of thing like U Scorpio.
AS for the Sun, we don’t have to wait for the Sun to go nova. Just have to wait for it to become unstable like Delta Scorpio. Then we are toast.

Chevy Novas didn't sell well in Mexico because the name translated as No Go. Turns out that's another urban legend. Nova's sold okay in Latin countries. There's a whole linguistic angle that I won't repeat but one piece I read said that "nova" and "no va" are as distinguishable in Spanish as "carpet" and "car pet," and the root meaning of nova--new--is more readily understood in Spanish than in Ennglish.
