Patriotism (or something)

So I’ve noticed a trend in the various garbage pickup services around here. Their names are American Disposal, Patriot, and USA. What’s up with the garbage market having a monopoly on patriotism??? I don’t see anyone else trying this tactic—-realtors, clothing manufacturers, shoe stores, coffee houses… Nope, only the garbage men are proud to be Americans. What’s up with that?

That's hilarious. Our company here is just plain old Waste Management. Obviously they hate America or else they would've chosen a more patriotic name.

Ha ha, that's a pretty funny observation. I guess at least somebody is patriotic in this day and age!

If it makes you feel better, one brand of toilets is "American Standard"...
