Names that are bad for business
I saw an ice cream shop called "Marble Slab Creamery" today.
Ok. Now, as soon as I see the phrase "marble slab" I think: morgue. So of course my mind "read" Marble Slab Crematory instead, which was so shocking, given the neon ice-cream cone-shaped light in the window, that I nearly crashed the car in horrified disbelief. I mean...ok, it's probably not the WORST name ever, but I mean...all I can think of is macabre little ice cream cones made out of like, frozen packed ash. It's horrible.
Some people just shouldn't be allowed to name things.
