MMeM, Vol. 9 Issue 94 – Jos A Men’sWearhouse

don’t pardon the pun here.

Oh, I’m sure it’s just me, but are you familiar with the clothing stores, Men’s Wearhouse and Jos. A. Bank? Talk about the world’s worst named stores ever. Men’s Wearhouse, what so was Men’s 360 Store already taken?

And, Joseph A. Bank. Really? I have driven past that place and thought for a while it was an investment bank, then just a bank, then, well they have commercials and they haven’t helped much either. Then, you have the Men’s Wearhouse with the owner’s voice that sounds just like Harvey Fierstein from Mrs. Doubtfire. I guarantee it.

New Picture

So today there’s news that Jos. A. Bank rejects the buyout offer from Men’s Wearhouse. I for one hope that this ends up happening at some point, in some way. With one fell swoop we could have two of the worst retail names ever reduced to one and I can’t even imagine what those two outfits (don’t pardon the pun here) come up with for a name.
