To think this van rental's company name and logo is in poor taste?

[cuntycowfacemonkey]

"Mental Rental" with the catchphrase of a 'a mental rate for rental mate' and to top it off nicely in case the meaning isn't clear their company logo is a brain

They have some sister companies AF, all with mental in the title.

I don't think it's very brain like.

mental man and van?

COME ON!! Surely I'm not the only one that thinks that's just ridiculous??

Probably badly judged, if only because people may not be too keen on hiring vans that have "Mental" plastered on the sides.

it's more like a brain, than say, an elbow

Yes and ElbowRentals doesn't rhyme.. I think if I saw the logo on it's own I wouldn't immediately think 'brain'.

You're offended by a van company whilst having a username that could be construed as sexist/racist if someone wanted to be professionally offended over it...

Ok then.

racist?

I didn't at any point say I was offended

I don't think it's as bad as a fishing tackle supplies shop I saw called 'Master Bait'.

That's bloody brilliant, SB

what about In Bread bakery?

It kinda looks a bit like Optimus Prime if you squint a little.

Maybe it's Optimus Prime but smidged up a little bit to avoid copy right issues.

Well soupdragon if all words associated with crazy describe people with mental illness then maybe just don't use them?

So, how would that work then? Do we have to learn to make that beep noise they use to blank out swearing on TV any time we wish to refer to something crazy? Don't you think that's a bit [beep]?

Am off to start Elbow Rentals RIGHT NOW. And I don't even have a driving licence!

Did you just call me a cunty cow face, cunty cow face?

Anyhow, yes, I have no real problem with someone with mental health issues being described as 'mental'. It's less wordy than 'someone with mental health issues' and basically has the same meaning.

I sometimes describe myself as a bit mental. (I do have diagnosed mental health issues)

Here's your logo OneMore

Yay, thankd!
