Tacky names, add your own

These aren't nearly as funny as the ones I've read so far...

But the doctor that stitched up my knee when I was 12...his name was Dr. Gitar. I have no idea what his first name was.

And my pediatrician (years and years ago, of course) was Dr. Kwacko.

[Spiffy McMoron]

When he answered the phone, he never said "Dr Phile." It always sounded just like he was saying "Paedophile."

God, I hope he wasn't a pediatrician!

There's also a Hung Far Low in Portland, OR.

That's precisely the restaurant I'm referring to

Well, at least he didn't hyphenate to Seymour-Pusey

Just found this on the smoking gun. Not a business, but pretty bad none the less.

On the way down to the beach, there's a place called "The Park and Blow".

[DarthRetard]

Well, mine may or may not be funny....

1. Flamers- restaurant in the mall
2. Kelly's Cajun Grill, which, coincidentally, is a chinese restaurant....with no crawdads.
3. Floppy Wangs Chinese Cuisine- Tullahoma Tn i believe.

I find them mildly amusing.

A Dutch doctor who was working with my mother (a nurse) refused to change the way he answered the phone. He was called Dr Phile (or a spelling that sounded like that). His first name was Peter.

When he answered the phone, he never said "Dr Phile." It always sounded just like he was saying "Paedophile."

Well, one of the doctors that was helping my father after dad broke his hip was named

Dr. Paine. Pronounced Pain.

I was flipping through an Avon book just today, and could they not come up with a better name for a lip gloss line than Hook Up? Sheesh. I wonder if they also offer Skank Mascara and Easy Lay Eyeshadow?

I take it you aren't familiar with Urban Decay or Too Faced cosmetics.

A positive Throckmorton is a medical student joke and I have to say, i haven't heard it for about 15 years (not that I was ever a medical student, I hasten to add) ! It means that the penis is pointing to the side of the body as the disease or damage. So if a patient had a broken right leg, and his willy was dangling to the right as well, that would be a positive Throckmorton.

I spent a very peculiar night in the college library once while a drunk third-year medic explained this to me in great detail.

Used to be a urologist in Nebraska named Dr. Semin.

[hecubus]

Two of the most prominent Urologists at my local Medical center are Dr. Wood and Dr. Palm.

Think about it.

Back in the old days of TV, we had to run commercials on these small, brick like cassettes. Each commercial had to be dubbed, timed out, have a start and stop point recorded on there, and a lable typed so that when it showed up the preview as "gonna run next" we'd know what it was, like "Food Lion 245" or "Eckard 563" and so forth. It would show up on the screen like a caption.

Well, the lables got creative. "News Brief" became "News Barf." "Eckard figure skater" became "Mannish broad on ice". Ad by local politician become "dickhead stuffed into suit."

Our supervisor told us to knock it off. So we did.

There is a furniture store in town by the unfortunate name of "Badcock." (actually, there is a mattress store called Les Bollocks, too, but I digress.) Anyway, instead of typing up something filthy, like normal, we simply typed in "Badcock."

Supervisor saw the word "cock" in the caption and chewed us a new one. We took demonic and perverse pleasure in telling him that was the real name of the business! He got really embarassed...because you KNOW we accused him of having a dirty mind all day after that.

Drove past Throckmorton st in Fort Worth, and then had to explain what a positive Throckmorton was to everyone else in the truck.

ok....so what is a positive Throckmorton??

One of my company's accounts was a business called Rise Softools.

They deal in financial information, but the name seems far better suited to a Cialis competitor.
