Maybe I Just Have A Dirty Mind

But am I the only one who finds this funny?

Nope…I’ve snickered at it myself. Definitely creates ‘top of mind’ awareness.

The owners are wonderful people — you know the types who quit good jobs to pursue a dream. I loved walking the dog by there every day to hear the tourists snicker on their way to Lauriol Plaza, back when we lived in Dupont. What’s tricky is when you need to google the store from work to get their phone number….

That’s so funny, David about googling it from work. And of course the name is “clever”. That’s why they picked it. BTW, I can’t get this great blog at work (I work for the school system), as it’s blocked against blogs. So I have to access it through the back door. Which reminds me, when I was a kid there was a liquor store that had a sign Al’s rear entrance. My father and I laughed every time we read it.

I used to live right near Doggie Style and used to cringe whenever I walked by with visiting relatives — I guess there are a lot of dirty names in the neighborhood that I just don’t understand (does Lambda Rising mean somthing as well?).

I like those stores with names that are a double entendre. Reminds me, I used to get my hair cut at a place called ‘Curl up and Dye’ in Chicago.

Hey, I found “Senators Sausages” funny, so I think you can guess what I think about this.

I have that same snickering reaction whenever I see that place called “The Department of Justice” …. teehee. I mean, really…

I have always found that sign hilarious. Surely intentional…

I was in Fort Collins, CO and saw a ladies’ waxing salon called “The Screamin’ Peach” and it had a picture of a peach on it….I thought that was more than a bit racy! And painful sounding….

I’m from Fort Collins! In Denver there was an ice cream shop owned and run by a lesbian couple called “Lickety Splits.” Delish.

Surfing to old posts? Don’t forget that Admiral Duport was a rear admiral. It’s right there on the bottom of the fountain.
