I wonder why it went out of business?

I love the canopy. It's as ridiculous as candy store owners on Eliot Avenue in Middle Village who spend $2000 on them and they can't spell the word BALLOON. Yet they sell the things. Their prices are just as inflated, too.

I wonder if this was a store owned by an English-speaking native, if not, he probably didn't know what "toss my cookies" means, one good reason to use focus groups or survey monkey.

This reminds me of Electolux, a dutch vacuum cleaner. When they first opened the American market, they wanted to use the slogan, nothing sucks like...

With the mastery of the English language declining, not only are these store titles misinterpreted by their owners like this one, but just glimpse at the misspellings on many of them.

Anon #3 - it has nothing to do with the english language. It appears that even you are not aware of the meaning of the sign. It has nothing to do with vomit. Getting your salad tossed is slang for having your asshole eaten out. My guess it was done on purpose.

That's hilarious!

Anyone have Chris Rock's email?

He'd love it!

Wild. I thought vomit was gross enough when associated with food. This is a lot worse. Fabulous name for a sex shop though.

So shouldn't it be "Toss YOUR salad?" After all, they are the sellers!

Wow, you guys are perverts. And I guess you can never eat a tossed salad because someone made a crude joke once upon a time.

"Hold the pickle , hold the lettuce, special orders don't upset us"

Sorry, you can't hold the pickle. The owner insists on holding all the pickles.

panzer65 said...

Then could you please cut the lettuce.
