While I was driving through Chicago on the way back from a job interview I saw, um... this...

:huh: :o :sducky
Oh... oh, my... Ahem. I see... Huh, well... Uh. I wish I had something clever to say to this, but anything I tried could not compare to the image itself.

we should have gone with Benito instead.

Like I told Rhombus earlier. I honestly don't know whether I should be laughing at this or be disgusted by it. Both, I guess?
-
That's a interesting name to name a establishment
-
Wow. Just Wow. :blink:
-
Not a smart choice if you ask me
-
....what? naming a funeral home after a dictator? I find that pretty disturbing.
-
Okay, so there are laws as to what you can name a child. Are there laws as to what you can name an establishment? If not, it's no wonder the guy could get away with this.

It was named in the 1880s by an ancestor that was named Adolf. That being said, you would imagine that they would have changed the name during World War 2.

I see nothing wrong with this. Adolf is a normal name. Now if they named it Adolf HITLER, then that would be bad. But why should a business be forced to change it's name? I'm sure they're very proud of their ancestor. Just because some horrible dictator happened to share the same name doesn't mean that they should dishonor their ancestor and change the name of their business.
-
I couldn't stop laughing after I read this. What a bad set of circumstance, and they weren't even trying to do this in poor taste either. What were the chances of that happening when the business was created?
We could sing the "Bad Luck" song right now I suppose.

Well this building definitely aged well…
