Perusing a pretentious grooming site (Truefitt & Hill, a barber shop/spa for men) and looking at the list of services they offered, I stumbled upon the following:  
“We offer the Gleneagles Stress Relief Treatment for the busy gentleman with a tight schedule and who needs maximum stress relief in a short period of time”

Did they not see how this could be taken?  
There was also the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) whose former logo you’re free to google image.

Know any others that people have written, drawn or said unintentionally?

I was not previously familiar with this one – absolutely charming. 🙂

These things remind me of the “signs” in old National Lampoon magazines. Pictures of real signs, like:

Planned Parenthood  
(Use rear entrance)  
Car Wash  
Hand Job  
$5.00  
National Braille Institute  
(Watch your step)

Etc.

I suppose one might think so, if one did not notice immediately beneath a fairly detailed description of the services actually comprised in that treatment. Overpriced and possibly useless, but not lascivious.

I guess naughtiness is in the eye of the beholder.

That’s as good as the [Prostate Cancer Foundation](http://www.pcf.org/site/c.leJRIROrEpH/b.5699537/k.BEF4/Home.htm) logo. And you can’t tell me that wasn’t intentional.
