Unintentional Porn

Locally, there is a S & M Paving Company. How they pave driveways in all that latex is beyond me. Must be part of the thrill.

Also, there is a S & M Equipment Company. Bulldozers and backhoes indeed.

And in this locally, I’ve seen vans for “S & M Plumbing”.

A grocery shop here in Matsuyama which, in glowing neon, proudly proclaimed itself to stock “Flesh Foods”.

In Avon, Colorado there is a store called Beaver Liquors. They sell postcards with the store’s name and a couple in a, ah, well, um, interesting situation on 'em.

Oh here!

I found this old comic about Glenn Miller, read the third panel, right in the middle, drummer Ray McKinley says:

“Yippee! I’ll beat the skin for Glenn!”

HEHEHEHEHEHEHE ooohhhhahahahaha!!!

In LaCrosse, WI, there is a gas station/convenience store called “Pump n’ Munch”. Not a bad night’s work, that.
Also, a local small supermarket called Dick’s has a customer club card type program where you have weekly specials and whatnot. The club’s name? The Insiders.

That’s right, the Dick’s Insider club. They even advertise on billboards and newspapers.

And hourly rates.

In DC there’s an annual “Jazz Festival”. For the promo T-shirts, they decided to be kinda arty and replace the “A” in “JAZZ” with a drawing of the Washington Monument. On the first glance, it reads “WASHINGTON JIZZ FESTIVAL”.

I’m working with 1998-vintage phone books here at the office, but a quick search found the following Maryland businesses:

S&M Auto Supply (Bladensburg)
S&M Marketing (Silver Spring)
S&M Painting & Paperhanging (Rockville)

B&D Auto Parts (Damascus)
B&D Consulting and Advertising (Silver Spring)
B&D Decorating (Churchton)
B&D Fuel Injection Service (Temple Hills)
B&D Garage Door Service & Repair (Rockville)
B&D Kitchens (White Plains)
B&D Landscaping & Lawn Service (Silver Spring)
B&D Marketing Group (Annapolis)
B&D Weddings (Upper Marlboro)

I’ve never attended a B&D Wedding, but I’ll bet it gives new meaning to ‘tying the knot’. I’m not sure why either B&D or S&M need to be marketed - you just let those who like that sorta thing know it’s available, and the rest should take care of itself. (Maybe that’s what B&D Advertising does.) Does B&D Decorating use a lot of decorating motifs involving ropes and chains? And I’m not sure what the deal is with either B&D or S&M Auto Parts, but I think I understand B&D Fuel Injection Service. :smiley:

Several years ago, a Wendy’s restaurant near me had the following sign up for almost an entire day:

WENDY’S
HOT AND JUICY
TODAY

It was their then-current slogan, so it might have even been a legitimate mistake…

Cristie Kerr is now my favorite golfer.

:eek:

I once saw a van which said “Big Dick’s Moving Services.”

I’m certain it was intentional.

Another in the S&M, um, chain: S&M Body Shop, not far from my house.

Also, did you know you can clean your rifles with Spooge?

Clearly, this needs no explanation…

LPGA trophy

If that ain’t unintentional porn, I don’t know what is!

:smiley:

D’oh… failed to read mouthbreather’s post…

Probably the worst I have been involved with: I was working on a paper where the lady doing the headlines that day had started happy hour a little early and she wrote:

Council schedules pubic meeting

(we made Leno with that one)

A few years earlier I was sports editor on a paper in Guymon, Oklahoma and a nearby community is named Hooker. My headline for a baseball game between the home team and the nearby community read:

Hooker takes on nine from Guymon.

Around here there was a placed called “A.P. Rectal Clinic” and in the marquee below it said “Free Eye Exams”

That made America’s Funniest Home Videos.

During last year’s World Series between the Yankees and Diamondbacks, someone held up a sign that said “It takes more than 9 Yanks to beat the Big Unit”

For those of you who don’t know, Randy Johnson, a pitcher for the Diamondbacks, is 6’10" and his nickname is the Big Unit(how fitting for a guy named Johnson).

Just around the corner from me, and I pass by it every day (and chuckle):

Johnson Insulation

You know, it just doesn’t get that cold here in Austin… :slight_smile:

:eek:

New York Times headline from Sunday, April 14:

“Thongs Join Anti-Israel March in Germany”

Wow. Looks like someone made a cast of (not really that much) Lesser Dave and has turned it into a golf trophy. I didn’t even notice. Must’ve been that weeklong bender last summer.
