My wife and I used to have a running joke about "ampersand stores"/"ampersand restaurants." Whenever your neighborhood gets an ampersand store or ampersand restaurant, you know you've made it. Even better if they are two seemingly unrelated objects, as opposed to names, like "Forge & Canvas" or "Glass & Eagle"
― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Wednesday, 30 November 2022 20:16 (three years ago)
for a while it looked like "+" might have been displacing "&" but I think "&" retains supremacy. Whereas " 'n' " has a different class connotation.

i mean, i think in the way it signals "we are trading goods on a more essential and socially good level" it was a new boost for small business and people with small business dreams. but maybe it got a little corny ;). still i would totally go into a store called "satchel & page" over barnes and noble or w/e. although there are a few good barnes and nobles in my area. tbh i could never run a small business, way too fucking hard, and i admire people who do it well and do it interestingly.

There's a tiktok account called "Thing and Thing" that gives the name of a real business and challenges viewers to guess whether it's a bar/cafe, a tattoo parlor, or a salon. On the weekends it can be any kind of business. A bit pedestrian but cumulatively hilarious and I respect her dedication to the form.
