Title: Perhaps good logo, but really bad placement
Post by: MYX on September 09, 2006, 03:07:25 pm: I was just going through some pictures and came across a picture I forgot about.
If you have a business (in this case a bank), you put your logo on side of the building. If your bisuness is on a corner, you put the logo on both outside facing walls. Add a clock, and the right angle, we have all the ingredients for basic spelling.

I wonder if they'd have you back at the club?

I can understand leaving, but why delete the account ? Does it help with the seperation ?

(http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b361/masternoxx/bunghole_liquors.jpg)

I hear Chad used to live in Salem. I bet this is where he got all his ~~liquids~~, liquor. :cheers:

They sell shirts and beer cozies with the store logo, so probably not.

That's not in Salem, it's in Peabody... but yeah, been there. Not much more than an average liquor store. It's a real place and every couple of years the city tries to force him to rename it. He just shows up to their hearing with a dictionary and says "IT'S A RELEVANT TERM, ---uvulas---" and it stays Bunghole.

vader, like I said, I gave an explanation to everyone that I felt the need to give one.

To pile on this joke pile... hey, look, that building has poop on it's PP.

The place actually closed!! It must have been within the last 6 weeks, cuz I saw it open then. All I could get was the sign for the complex, but it does the job.
