Stupid Names For Businesses

[(Anonymous)]

There's a bar in my home town called Sips. I can't pass its sign without rolling my eyes; it sounds like a bar for twits.

Have you encountered any businesses with stupid names?

"Discount Funerals"

Because that's exactly who I want to burry a loved one xD

Re: Stupid Names For Businesses

oh wow, I can understand the impulse--funerals are ruinously expensive and I suspect it's very easy for an unscrupulous funeral director to guilt people into buying a lot of stuff nobody needs. But "Discount Funerals" does not inspire confidence. It sounds too much like "Pauper's Grave Burials."

Man Jobs.

Pretty sure there's a fireplace & wood-stove business not far from where I live called, "The Afterglow."

There's some business outside a town I travel through whenever I visit my family, and it's called Mera Dog. It annoys me to no end every time I see it, because the language mix is so ugly.

The 'Dog' part is definitely English (good thing, too, since 'dog' means 'died' in Swedish!), since they sell (and make?) dog food, but 'Mera' seems to be Swedish. It means 'more', only it's spoken language/casual, so it's not even supposed to be used in written language! And the name doesn't even make grammatical sense!

More died? Yikes, that is an unpleasant combo indeed.

That would fit for the funeral home. It'd still be awful, but it would fit.
