Poolife
Here we have Poolife, a company that sells pool cleaning products.
Seen anything wrong yet? Have you parsed the named as POO LIFE thanks to a missing L?
This especially hurts for such a product since the name now has a negative connotation (you don't want 'crap' in your pool!) and many will read it like the way described above. It certainly wouldn't hurt to double up on the L in the name...

Give 'em L, John.
The contrast between the product name and the tagline is "brilliant."
Where did the name come from?Who came up with the idea?Very creative..;)
That name is terrible but also funny. I wonder how much the name has harmed their business...
I found it funny..it's better with L,though!!
This reminds me of the old Jasper Carrot tv commercial programs where you'd have a Swedish product called FannyChocs or something!
Excellent find though!
That's amazing! if I had a pool i'd definitely buy it. Probably wouldn't use it though...
somebody please give back the L..it is attractive is some way though..:)
give back the L!!!hehe.who hide it eh>?
Oh my god, this name bring a great harm to the company I guess. Anyway this is really funny name.
Talk about poor marketing strategy! This does not make me want to buy your product for my pool.
I hope nobody was paid to come up with that name.
Its amazing how nobody thought this name would be a bad idea.
That's amazing!
Someone from marketing needs to get fired...
Who will keep the P out of pool?
Hahaaha.
That's the best name that they can found
Poo Life? lolol Kind of catchy actually.
:O)
But what if it were an insurance company run by Christopher Robin and Co?
That would work.
Is there also a sign that say's - Don't poo in uors and we won't poo in yours!
lol, that's hilarious, here's a lil spanish joke... don't piscina pool.. lol

tribute to carlin on my humor page
that's hilarious!! they must have thought really hard to come up with a domain name like this
Poo in the pool? How grosse!! lol Very funny name.
I remember seeing poo in a pool once when I was a kid. Not a pretty sight! Horrible name btw.
Yeah Right the P word without the L is literally crap and they should have spelled it with a double L. Maybe they intended to spell it with a single L to gain attention, but it was quite a gross controversy.
But actually the first time i read it, I thought it was an insurance company advertisement.

Actually some time when other make fun of your name it is some kind of advertisement also. But I am not saying that it is good or bad advertisement. It really depends.
Just when you think it can't be funnier then this. POO Life comes to the rescue. They are destined to fail with that name:) It is just poo :)
They really do have products with this brand name:
http://www.archchemicals.com/Fed/POOLIFE
I doubt they had a marketing professional come up with that brand name.
And to think I was worried about the pee in pool! Hee hee!!
lol... nice.
Has it actually worked for them, or has it been more counter-productive?

WoW Fail Blog
It is incredible that people would make that kind of mistakes and release that publicity knowing that would be eaten in a few seconds.
deary me! maybe it was just a really clever marketing ploy to get noticed ;)
jajaja it´s very funny your blog kisses from Argentina.
Wow. I wonder if they thought they were being clever by leaving out the L. Ha ha.
"The most brilliant clean ever seen". When I look at my poolife, it's anything but clean.
Is "brilliant"
To the untrained eye, it may not be noticeable!
Wow, i wonder if they knew about it when they created the name ;)
At least they are getting some PR, don´t they :-)
ergh..poo life really dredges up some unpleasant images. Maybe They should run that scene from caddy shack where bill murray tosses the candy bar in the pool as their promotional campaign.
Maybe they should change their business and start cleaning poo from pools.
looking to buy some shoes from www.tomsshoes.com. he figured it out faster, but it wouldn't have been such an oops.
LOL!! You have to laugh, can't believe no one saw it!
you check out the tagline? the most brilliant clean ever seen. rofl
Woooowwww.... worst name ever lol.
Here's some more real URLs...
www.poo-soft.com (Tech site)
www.poo.sk (Swedish music site)
Haha, that's fantastic. Really enjoying reading your blog. It's giving me a good chuckle on this rainy day!
Keep up the good work!
I thought it was an adult site about nasty things :)
OMG! what a fail!
hahahahaha
LOL. please i need de L again!!!
hahahaha, very funny. what about the "L"?
I think that this is a great name because it sounds very bad and on this way it attractes the attention of potential users of this service.

Its an amazing blog!
I never saw such a blog! Have bookmarked it! Will be back soon!

I'd have to be on a huge drug abuse binge to have a job cleaning pee pee and poo poo out of a pool.
They would have used a dash - in the middle of the domain name and that could have made it nicer.
I bet they thought they were being real slick. Yeah right! They must have noticed that the POO stands out so much ?!
The name really does say it all! lol
There was a tagline for a pen ad.. "Pen is mightier than a sword".. it read as "Pen is".. This one was a big F**k up.
How dumb do you have to be to forget an "L"?
This one is great really. I'm ROFLMAO! But thanks for putting these all in a blog because only here can you see just how many stupid people there are.
I guess if you are looking for a dirty pool then there ya go.
nice blog!please, update it
LOL that is HYSTERICAl. I love funny signs and strange company names.
jajaja, its very funny, i really love your blog, its the best!
what's wrong with having a life of poo? sounds fun, may be a bit unsanitary and ill smelling but it could be fun... maybe not..
All I can say is...Ha. Imagine probably the time someone took to come up with that name and logo and thought they had done a jam up job..and all they got is a life of poo!
How this can go live is a mystery to me.
Just makes me think of swimming around in a pool full of poo. Some life that is!
Where did the name come from
Give 'em L, John.
Oh my god, this name bring a great harm to the company I guess. Anyway this is really funny name.

2020.07.20不敢來酒店上班-酒店打工的原因有關於八大行業酒店上班【簽約/合約】的問題!我梁曉尊做一次總解答讓妳們解決心中的困惑。
1: 酒店小姐的基本介紹跟工作內容已現在酒店上班沒有所謂的簽合約/切結書，因為這樣是綁小姐的做法，很不道德…【小姐總有一天會離開，強求她留在八大這是不人道的行為】
2: 我在酒店上班的日子在職人員想更換經紀人或酒店不想做了…卻有合約在身怎麼辦~…!?我梁曉尊直接跟你說可以馬上離開了
a : 酒店兼差不是一個複雜的工作環境？合約內容酒店小姐上班通常會取什麼名字?本身要件要有【商營利事業登記編號/還有政府認證核發蓋章】因為這些文件都是要繳稅的….一但登報稅了，您自己想想妳在職期間這幾年{妳}家人~早就會知道你在八大行業了…..反而家人卻沒發現，每年也都沒有繳稅單更沒有勞健保，因為這份是假合約【法律用語:偽造文書】
b :合約內容常有一段話:幾年以內不能離職/幾年內不能更換經紀人。這番話已經觸犯【法律用語:強制罪】
c :從一開始的違法合約到內容的不人道，甚至離職還又要賠償..。我梁曉尊跟妳說【妳被唬了】
d : 酒店小姐去酒店上班都一定要出場接s嗎？重頭到尾觸法的假合約，真的到警察局/法院 {妳}是贏家。
e :我梁曉尊做經紀人快十年了…我還沒見過有經紀公司拿著合約去警局敢賭這件事。
very nice article..after very long time i see a brilliant content....thanks for sharing such a nice article .. keep posting..
