Not everyone will appreciate a good phallic joke, yet Penised.com is banking on the fact that some people will feel inspired to turn rival logos or brands they simply aren't fans of into something much more inappropriate. With $25, a person simply has to visit Penised.com to get a team of designers to place a logo with penises.
Already viral on Reddit, Penised.com has so far given eBay, Bank of America, Airbnb and Snapchat a phallic makeover. Although aware of potential legal issues, they are still letting customers have fun by choosing their own “girth, cut and length” preferences on Penised.com. Penised is also contemplating moving towards vaginas, stating they are “erecting some new tools” to "penetrate into new areas” in the future.
