Troubled times call for a little levity, so let’s list our inventory of spoonerized business names. You might shop at Jack Flacket’s Flack Jackets, or Bubba Roat’s Rubber Boats, for instance. This question extends the spoonerism tradition we launched with this [NSFW] question and this G-rated one from Fluther’s distant past. Please, no X rated answers here, though. If enough of you have ideas for X rated spoonerific business ventures, that can be a separate question.

William Spooner.
@gailcalled Thanks for saving me the effort of providing a link. No, @JenniferP, back when we rescued Spoony from the animal shelter, my youngest son was in middle school, and the word “spoony” was the latest slang among the kids for something or someone that’s really cool and neat. He rightly thought she was cool and neat, so he named her Spoony.
I was just joking about the cat.
