That’s Punny

August 17, 2022

What is it about porta potties that make a silly name almost a requirement? I guess it’s something you can’t take too seriously, so a bit of humor helps. I don’t see a name like “Private Palace” being all that convincing.

I continue to believe that these catchy/silly names do their job, in terms of recall. I’ve been looking at the Floods website, and I have to say… I went down a bit of a rabbit hole reading up on all the things.

Did you know there’s a certain type of these things, designed for high-rise construction use? It looks incredibly open, but if you gotta go (and you’re stuck at the top of a skyscraper), well…you gotta go.

Random trivia: I took photos of porta potties on my first ever blog post, oh so many years ago.
