Life Hypothetical: You See A Business - Page 5

**Rain Man** · 07-28-2013, 03:43 PM

You get a job promotion, but it comes with a transfer, but you're an upwardly mobile person so you take it. You move to your new city, and since you're not ready to settle into a neighborhood yet, you rent a condo.

On your first day, you walk around your new neighborhood, marveling at the different foliage, different bird songs, and the ever so slight differences in Starbucks and Subway stores.

You meander down a street and you see a business off in the distance. It's too far away to see inside the windows, but you can barely make out the name. It is "Antoinette's Insult."

Does that name imply a particular type of business to you, and if so, what type of business?

Please answer before reading the thread, or at least answer based on your honest gut reaction.

I was friends with this kid from Japan in high school and his family owned a bakery called "Yummy Yummy Bakery" in Japan. I always thought that was adorable.

lol, first thought would be some strip joint but 1 second of actual thought would make me say a cake shop.
