one of the more difficult decisions I've been faced with all month
Think Fried chicken, then read the brand name backwards. I know this may not be funny to some, but sometimes I just have to wonder what goes through the minds of some companies when naming their product, or what doesnt go through their minds for that matter.
Yeah, Im not racist, but I still cant help to see stuff like that. I have a can of "Knock 'er Loose" penetrating lubricant at home that circa 60 something, kind of a WD-40 thing. I find shit like this all the time.

it says more about you than the manufacturer.
Apparently the Dutch founder's name was Peter Koops. I guess his ancestors back in the Netherlands weren't thinking about spelling derogatory insults for African Americans backwards when they took on the family name.

Come on guys, it was a joke, but I wont lie, I find humor in stereotypes. Which was more of the point of this, the stereotype, not very much at all the derogatory term. If I ever run across a pawn shop owned by somebody with a last name ending in ski or stein, Ill take a pic of that too. Look, I guess this was pushing the limits of the forum, Ill refrain my stereotypical humor in the future and keep it to myself. I dont want to end up the next banned member. Sorry if I offended anyone.
