I suppose this could spawn a retro "Horns and Hardhats"... :wink:

The Frog and Durian

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

"...in the mid-’90s when the internet was coming...there was a tendency to assume that when all the world’s knowledge comes online, everyone will flock to it. It turns out that if you give everyone access to the Library of Congress, what they do is watch videos on TikTok."  -Neil Stephenson, author, in The Atlantic

 

"In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual." -Galileo Galilei, physicist and astronomer

Oh, these are too funny. I'm sure many of you have heard of Dirty Dick's Crab House and Awful Arthur's on the Outer Banks of North Carolina? They also have two gourmet nut shops: Dog Nutz and Try My Nuts. I swear. I've actually grown addicted to Try My Nuts's Nuts on Fire.

Anyway, my entries:

Botulism Bistro

Pizza Plague-- the new pizza chain that's spreading fast

The Petri Dish-- it'll grow on you

The Smoking Gun Cafe-- you shoot it, we serve it

Pappy's Goiter House

Chuck's Abattoir & Deli

Hair of the Dog Wine Bar

Frenchie's Laundry and Curry Hut

Mystery Meat BBQ Shack

Burgers n' Boils

Clappy's Public House

The Flatulent Flagon Alehouse

Soggy Bottoms Saloon

*sigh* My apologies.
