Funny Signage: 'Tublina'

I had my morning walk today. I usually passed by in a small restaurant and cannot help to think about its name. It seems like the owner misspelled a cartoon character's name 'Thumbelina.' She is a girl with a size of a thumb. Do you find it funny? Are there any funny signages at your place?

No, I haven’t seen any funny signs.

I forgot to do an errand this morning. I will be out again and see if I can find another one.

@Shavkat I hardly ever see a funny sign, once in awhile a misspelling.

Maybe that's the name of the wife or daughter or possibly the owner's name...

It is not likely to be a person's name. I will feel sorry if it does.

@DaddyEvil I can name it since it is owned by him or her.

@Shavkat I wondered but wasn't going to accuse you of naming the person...

Strange name indeed for a resto. But I guess we need to verify the story behind it. Many nowadays are making names by combining them with other names thus creating those strange names.

I agree. Perhaps the name has the meaning that means to the owner.

To many to count. Not that I know where I can find any at the moment. I follow this guy on tictok who tends to post videos full of them.

@kaylachan I heard about it. I am not ready to download it. I might do it if I have more time to explore it.

I sometimes see them on the Internet. I have not installed the TicTok app.

I have not noticed any funny signages here but a lot of it is in Spanish and I never learned to read spanish.

That's the reason why I never enter this small restaurant.

There are many funny signs here. One was this roadsign: "Drive safely, it's very tapok." Tapok means 'dust" so the sign is saying that drivers should be alert as the road is dusty which can reduce visibility.

I got the word 'tapok.' Is it an Ilocano word?

I am sure that it will be like a fiesta with so much food on the table.
