If you could own your own business, what would it be and what would you name it?
Rule: the title must reference you or your name somehow.
I would be a chocolatier and the owner of Shorty's Sinful Sweets.

Fuzzy's Dungeon of Miscellany - A hobby shop with all sorts of buildables and trainsets and Doctor Who paraphernalia and other geeky collectible stuff and retro games and consoles and a pool table in the lobby next to the vending machines. Also a tattoo parlor and sex toy shop in the back room.
Which is why I do not own a business.
Orij Juice Bar
A little café with a focus on healthy beverages and oriental themes.
My ideal business would be a hybrid hobby store/cafe. We would serve sodas, coffee, and alcoholic beverages while hosting D&D, showing Star Trek, having geeky film festivals, having bands play, and holding video game tournaments and trout like that. We'd also sell board games, books, role-playing accessories, used video games, and memorabilia. We'd be a casual place where cosplaying and trout would be encouraged.
It would be called something really awesome. Like Arcadum. Get it? Arcane? Arcade?
Philiscious Chocolates and Sweets. A chocolatier right across the road from Shorty's Sinful Sweets that is better in basically every way. We exist solely to put her 100% natural hippy chocolate store out of business.
I expected Jiro Dreams of Sushi. How perfect would that be am I right?Quote:

Mind your own business
(SPOILER)ba dum tsh!
I would love to run a weeaboo paradise, with video game stations and drinks and troutty sushi that also sold Japanese paraphernalia.
For now I'm happy with my Etsy store, though I'm looking into buying imports wholesale and making an outside website.
G13's Secret 'Stache
A shoppe with many unique mustaches for the classy gentleman.
I want to go into business with Laddy and Shlup.
It would be a combination arcade/video game store, focusing on the classics, and I don't know what I would call it.
I already kinda do.
Bakeshop.
C.R. and Cakes
"At Chris' We're Masterbakers!"
My friend and I plan on starting a Cake and Cocktail Shop. It's gonna be amazing. What would complement some delicious cakes better than some cocktails? Also, there will be kareoke.
Shauna's BEST IDEA EVER.
Okay. I don't have a name.
Tequila Frosting
A shot/cocktail bar with a bakery.
We would have special cupcakes made after cocktails, so Daiquiri cupcakes, Mojito cupcakes, Pina Colada cupcakes.

We'd also have one of those proper nifty 50's style Jukeboxes and have Jive Nights.
Totally cool, right?
(OMG SHAUNA YOU HAVE THE SAME IDEA! :lol:)
DISCLAIMER: Locky and I are NOT the same person.
:shifty:
So then Pike and Laddy and Shlup and I will start a giant hobby/game/weeaboo/cafe/whatever store conjoined with Locky and Shauna's cake and alcohol place like a Starbucks inside a Barnes and Noble or a cozy indoor flea market and together we will get all the customers ever
I do own my own business :/
Either a bar or a brewery. And I can't think of a clever name for either.
Anyone that does can have some rep. :p
I've got it... it's perfect!
(SPOILER)Julian's
I don't think I could come up with some sort of business if I use Agent Proto, but if I use my "pr00t" nickname, I could own some sort of sports bar with a name like pr00t's. I'll serve alcohol and have several giant screen HDTVs, with a couple hooked up to video game consoles and maybe have a small stage for live music and/or karaoke.
Eric's Electrical Empire. Independently run union electrical contracting for both residential and commercial operations! I'll make it happen in ten years or so.

I work for the family business right now. The two branches work on cars in different aspects.
There's HPMotors. That's where I focus on general repair and maintenance of any vehicle you bring us.
Dread Nought Racing handles performance work. Anything from upgrading street cars to building complete race cars.
If I owned my own business, other than a speed shop, I'd want to have a little place where I make metal wrought goods (because I want to learn black smithing) and hand crafted glassware (because I want to learn glass blowing). It would also sell used books and used albums, with a little coffee shop/sandwich bar. The drinks and food would be served in my own handmade glassware.
Maybe I'd call it Sharky's Shanty.
I'd like to do indie game development under enm studios. It's based on the domain name I've had since I was 14.
41-Inches-Wide of Manliness.
:greenie: Would my business boom?
My family has said I should start a PC repair shop, but I really don't think there will be a place for them in 5 years. So instead I'll just force myself upon pr00t and we'll open Fut & pr00t's Sports Bar.

you'll be out of business in two weeks
What if I have a basement where the hipsters can give me their business unseen by respectable folks? I'll decorate the walls with big mustaches, they won't be able to stay away.
segregation didn't work very well in america
It will work in Pontusia!
kim jong-rantzien, ladies and gentlemen.
I'd live in Pontusia.
Good. Your crappy place will keep my used book store open for regular folks.
What the hell? I'm not moving to Pontusia just to put Shorty's gross chocolates out of business. I'll just have to start destroying your reputation on Yelp like originally intended.
All this without ever having tasted my chocolate!
Has Pontus? :jokey:Quote:

No one wants to hang out at pr00t's? :(
PG's Playground
then I got nothing.
....
A sex dungeon.
There.
