*giggle* *snicker* *snort* What NOT to name your restaurant

In addition to the “Hung Far Low” already mentioned, there’s also a “Lung Fung” in nearby St. Helens–I keep hoping it’s not next to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation offices…

Not a restaurant, but I keep seeing trucks for a local concrete cutting company–it’s called simply “Penetrations,” and the logo is in bright pink, puffy style letters. It’s a little disturbing sometimes.

Our local giggle joint is called Thai Ho.

So, “giggle joint” is a euphemism for what, again? :dubious:

Ah, just a reference to the OP, not a euphemism. It’s just a restaurant. :slight_smile:

Darnit–I was figuring strip club at the very least…

If your name is Sam and your wife’s name is Ella, you’re best off not naming the family-run restaurant after yourselves.

In Japan it just means “pervert”, and not in a cute, playful, sense.

What is the word for a cute, playful pervert?

A little bit of a hijack, but that reminds me of a construction company I worked for shortly after Razorette and I were married back in the early 1970s. The company put up steel buildings like dairy barns and so on. The company’s name was P&L Steel Erections, Inc. My wife would ask me each day when I came home from work whether I brought any home with me.
