I think the sign would be more efficient if it read "Everyone but me".

It's like an ironmonger or a fishmonger, where you mong whores instead of iron or fish.

Probably.

According to the closest dictionary to hand, the -monger suffix comes from Old English "mangere" by way of Germanic "mangian" from the Latin "mango" meaning 'dealer', so I would infer that a "whoremonger" would be a 'pimp', but that same dictionary gives a direct definition as "a person who has dealings with prostitutes".

Thanks so much for this post. What a hoot! As an Atheist American currently living outside the good ol' US of A, I sometimes miss these types of things when trolling the internet for Atheist-related topics. I'll be back to see what else you uncover.
