{snicker} Kum & Go. Seriously. Could there be a more ridiculous name for a gas station? The answer to that question is, “I think not.”
****************
We were watching an episode of the Duggar’s show, 17 or 18 Kids and Counting on TLC. (I really love this show, but I forget how many they have, can you blame me?!)
During commercial break, the first ad was for the Nuva Ring.
{hee, hee!}
****************
While visiting my family this weekend, my brother and his wife stayed at a hotel. Snickering, my brother told me that there was a sign where you put your key card in that said, “Pull out slowly.”
{HA!}
He’s obviously not a blogger or he’d have taken a picture. I blame him for ruining this blog post.

I thought the very same thing the first time I saw a Kum & Go. And maybe laughed. And I might still find it funny.

I thought I was the ONLY person that laughed at the Kum and Go. I knew we were friends for a reason!

We had Kum & Go where I went to college– we called it “Ejaculate and Evacuate.”

We had a Kum & Go in the town I grew up in. It was the butt of many, many jokes. I don’t get why someone would name a store with that purposeful spelling.

Ha, ha! We don’t have K & G around my necks o’ the woods. However, we do have Dick’s Sporting Goods … which I find quite assuming.

Here’s one for you:
Loaf -n- Jug… another great gas station name. Are they a sister station to the Kum & Go?

Back when my husband and I were dating there was a gas station between our apartments that was called Pump n’ Munch. Driving past it was almost like foreplay.

I’m adolescent enough to find everything you shared funny.
“Pull out slowly” is my favorite though.
How about Between the Buns as the actual name of a sports bar I’ve visited? Just wrong.

My favorite is the sign I seem to see everywhere in Boston, “All deliveries in the rear.” Who writes this stuff? They must know that they’re funny, right?
Seriously – I wouldn’t pump my gas at Kum & Go.
