It's a Punny Old World
« on: February 01, 2016, 11:30:15 am »


               

Don't you just find all those "lists of" web pages (ex "Top Ten World's Greatest ...") just downright annoying? Well, for once I came across one that's right up my alley. Not only that, but it made me think. Here is part of the list of various real businesses from around the world.


 


  1. Planet of the Grapes - London Wine shop

  2.    
  3. Tequila Mockingbird - Ocean City, Maryland Bar

  4.    
  5. Thai Tanic - Washington DC Restaurant

  6.    
  7. Jurassic Pork - Baltimore mobile Eatery

  8.    
  9. Frying Nemo - Carlton UK Fish and Chips Shop

  10.    
  11. India Jones - Santa Monica Food Delivery Truck

  12.    
  13. Indiana Bones and The Temple of Groom - Simi Valley, Calif., dog groomer.

  14.    
  15. Facial Attraction - Weymouth UK, beauty salon

  16.    
  17. Life of Pie - Portland Oregon pizza joint

  18.    
  19. Fiddler on the Tooth - Seattle Washington Dentist

  20.    
  21. Spex in the City - Seattle Washington Optician

  22.    
  23. Happy Grillmore - Seattle Washington mobile Eatery

  24.    
  25. Lord of the Fries - Melbourne, Australia Fast Food Joint

  26.    
  27. Jean Claude Van Man - Transport Van

  28.    
  29. Austin Flowers - London Florist

  30.    
  31. Pita Pan - various unrelated companies in various places

  32.    
  33. Pub Fiction - Houston, Ontario Bar

  34.    
  35. Award Wieners - Disneyland Diner

  36.    
  37. The Codfather - London Fish restaurant

  38.    
  39. Citizen Canine - Chicago dog B&B

  40.    
  41. Lox Stocks & Bagels - West Hartford, Conn., breakfast bar

  42.    
  43. Hairy Poppins - Wokingham UK Barber

  44.    
  45. Hannah and Her Scissors - Miami Barber

Now I love a good pun, so I was wondering. Do you know of any module(s) apart from my "Hrothgar's Resting Place" that either contains or has in the modules title, puns and/or film name references?
