Slogans

While driving around the other day I saw two vehicles along the road that caught my attention. The first was was one of those trucks with a large tank on the back used for sucking out the poop wells from work site porta-potties. (yuck!) The second was a hearse, and I think it's safe to say we all know what those are used for. Seeing these got me to thinking about possible slogans for their respective trades.

For the porta-potty or septic maintenance companies:

1) We go where you go
2) First it was yours. . . now it's our doodie
3) We don't mind taking crap from you
4) Boldly going where others have gone before
5) We love feces to pieces
6) Let us carry the load
7) Your business is our business
8) We go with the flow
9) We're #1 in the #2 business
10) You have a full house. . . We have a royal flush

As an added bonus, a theme song from Huey Lewis:

♫"We're takin' what you're givin' cause we're workin' for a livin' "♫


And. . . for the funeral home companies:

1) You're dying to get our services
2) We dig you
3) And you thought taxes were bad
4) It would be a grave mistake to go somewhere else
5) Two hands. . . six feet
6) Our business is a dying art
7) When you absolutely, positively have to get there overnight
8) We're eternally grateful for your business
9) Burying more than just the competition


Feel free to share any suggestions you have in the comments.

Thank you for the very nice comment over on Serendipity. You had me in tears. But then I came over here to read about nasty gross stuff. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. You are brilliant, in a nutty kind of way. Talk about mood swings!

The funniest thing that I saw lately was a car with a woman driving it that said "Oral Arts" on the side of it in BIG letters. Then in teeny tiny microscopic letters written pale beige on white it said "dentistry". I nearly wrecked laughing.

Jules~ said...

oh my goodness Jeff, how do you come up with these? It is all too funny. It makes me think of that burial service lottery letter you wife received last year.
