The post I responded to where I made that joke is a dead link now, but it was something on that line (though not as one-the-nose).

Intended to evoke Peyton Place, I guess, but instead conjures an image of Peyton Manning receiving a lap dance.

I don't know how anyone could ever feel comfortable leaving their kids at a daycare called Little Kiddies.

A new business just opened two doors down from our local Nothing Bundt Cakes (with the typeface that looks like it says "butt" and the logo that looks like poop).

What's the new place called?

It's called...

iCream Yogurt & Crepes

Slogan: you don't want a butt cake? Okay, I (will) cream (in your) yogurt.

Is there any way this is not a pun on 'French Letter'?

Why would you want to associated any shop (with the possible exception of an adult store) with condoms?

They don't even have any products that feature lettuce, they are fucking bakeries.

Pottonmouth is a cannabis store in the small town of Valley Junction, OR. My theory is the owners were stoned when they invented the name.
