local businesses with horribly formed "names"

oooh, that slogan is good

Arbroath, not for the faint hearted:

Also, there is/was a guy who runs a tiling business in Stirling trading as the Bonnie Tiler. His van claims that he offers a "total eclipse of your hearth".

My last electrician's name was Watt.

At least he didn't go with "Holding Grout For A Hero"

lolling so hard at "Carpet Disco"

There's a sandwich shop in Worthing called Big Baps, not sure I want to gis that at work though.

Carpet Disco is fantastic

Go Potty, a local port-a-john company. I'm sure there a numerous groan-inducing poop-play portable toilet co's around.

Carpet Disco is killing me

idgi

its a law i think that every portopotty/septic tank company is required to have a punny names or slogan

Forgot all about this one in NOLA

lol Stevie there's nothing to really 'get' --- it's just a store that sells carpet that added Disco to their name.
could there be anything further from a disco than a carpet showroom?

hiny hiders (toilet partitions and latches)

'disco' might be an abbrev for 'discontinued' or maybe 'discounted' but i prefer to think it is a floor-to-ceiling deep-pile party lounge

Short Circuit Electrics

"Let Us Remove Your Shorts"

There's a sushi place in Reno called Kokopelli Sushi, because nothing invokes fresh fish like the southwestern American desert.

And the tea place called Bird Pick (a chain?), because I want *my* tea leaves to be walked on and pecked by birds.

sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof

need to visit and/or walk past this before it gets shut down I guess

I drive past this one stripmall store near work a lot, and it drives me NUTS.
Kissed Good Buy

Apparently they sell 'Hip Fashions With a Southern Vibe'.

which means "fannypacks with Confederate flags on them"

the website is kinda terrifying

iPho in Fremont, complete with an apple-shaped letter O, which inexplicably hasn't been shut down by Apple computer:

Farmers Exchange here in Santa Cruz. The associated website - www.farmersexchangesc.com/ - being the "horribly formed" part.

Pizza My Heart is a popular local pizza joint.

personal favorites are every horribly-formed pun on "bead" for bead shops

also local haircuttery called the "Wak Shack"

there's a place in Davis or Dixon outside Sac that backs onto I-80, and the sign says something like LIVE BAIT SHOOTING RANGE AMMO

and I always lol @ 'live bait shooting range'

Ha, Shakey, you just reminded me that we have 'Big Bead Boutique' round the corner.

Also 'Barber Black Sheep' is a local hairdressers.

Bead It
Off the Beading Path
Beadissimo

Ace Of Fades barbershop near my house - not horribly formed at all tho, in fact I think it's p awesome

Meaty Beady Big and Councy

Poo. Life. What's the matter with your hair?

We've got the King of Fades. Don't think I should let him know that there's an Ace out there.

(Also can't drive by w/o humming King of Fades… I will ALWAYS BE King of Fades….)

I didn't choose the Poo Life, the Poo Life chose me.

jokes on you cause they don't sell it

Sewing and alterations are another category of business where terrible puns abound. Two local examples:

Seams Sew Right [no longer in business]
Sew Sew Maria

I'm sure I and Adam have before mentioned the nearby Dick Whittington pub. the attached bottle shop is named Dick Liquor.
