For those not from the US of A, we have a sporting goods chain called Dick’s Sporting Goods.
Ah, and here I was thinking this was a German joke about him having a small dick. Klein means small in German.
Klein is also a very good punchline!
We have Klein Tools in the US, but they’re full size.
Full size for Americans, small for Germans.
that’s alright. In the UK we have a sporting good store chain called Blacks.
It’s, uh, yeah.
You can go to dicks.com and see for yourself as well
Many people must have been quite disappointed by that website.
Wow. You’re right; i really am dissappointed by that website.
Thank you. Was wondering =)
I hear that’s the same way they came up with Goldman Sachs, Johnson & Johnson, and Microsoft
I thought the last one was going to be Microsoft.

Anyone remember Gaylords Department Stores?
It would have been even more fitting if it was a locker room shower with other dudes.
nah, that’s how they named Johnson & Johnson
they use an apostrophe S - not a plural S
The athletes foot sports store must share a similar origin story.
So a few years ago there used to be a chain of sporting goods stores named Chick’s. They where acquired by Dick’s sporting goods in 2013. Make of that what you will.
Scheels?
There is a furniture store in the US called Badcock Furniture. Just sayin’
The last one should be Bill Gates lol.
Jobs named it Apple after the Beatles corporation Apple Corp. The Beatles sued so Steve Jobs promised that Apple was a computer company and would never get into music distribution that could dilute the Beatles Apple trademark.
Jobs named it Apple after the Beatles corporation Apple Corp.
Not true.
But then when Apple computers DID get into music distribution, the Beatles’ Apple Corp had some more lawyering to do.
Moral of the story is to defeat your foes while they’re young and weak, do not wait for them to grow large and powerful based on nothing but empty promises.
