Caption The Foto Contest

Regular readers know how much I enjoy typos in signs.  This is one that happens pretty regularly. I've decided to throw it out to you, dear reader. Post your captions to this sign in the comments (click to enbiggen).  The one I deem best will get some sort of prize, to be determined.  If I don't know you personally, don't worry, I'll find some way to get it to you. I'll get the ball rolling.

1. Smile, Moron camera.

2. My on camera?  MY on camera? MY on camera?!?

Update: Here are the contenders so far:
- By the end, Alan Funt was really phoning it in...
- In communist Russia, signs warn "CAMERA ON YOUR SMILE". What a country! (Anonymous I need to know how to contact you)

There Might Be A Better Solution Than A Sign

I found this in a local playground (click the picture to enbiggen).  This seems like something that maybe, MAYBE, was not planned well.  Hmmm, a structure that kind of looks like a piece of playground equipment but is deadly. Right next to actual playground equipment. Nothing could possibly go wrong here. The other explanation is that the civil engineer who designed this site hates children.

Increased Security

We wrap up Shu's Vegas-themed miniseries with this post and a thank you to him.

We knew we'd see a greater security presence in light of recent events. We just didn't expect anyone to outsource to a security agency from a galaxy long ago and far away.

I Think I'll Take The Elephant

Here is Shu's second entry of the Vegas mini-series.

The calendar or the water? Calendar or water? Something you hang on your wall or something you can get from your faucet? Something that lasts 12 months or something that lasts 12 seconds? Calendar or water? Calendar or water.

World's Biggest Small Print

We're featuring a Vegas mini-series, presented by correspondent Shu.



All I can say is this is one heck of a disclaimer for 25-cent wings (click the picture to enbiggen). The lawyers didn't miss any detail, including the "non-refillable fountain drink." Apparently, not only do you pay extra to get the wings to go, you have to pay for the box to put them in. Buyer beware: these 25-cent wings could run you more than your next car payment.

I Think I'll Take My Chances

Here is another picture from Killer (A.K.A Frankie).



There MIGHT have been a time when this building was safe, but I have a hard time believing that it would have ever qualified as a "Safety Building". Safe from what? I assume a tornado would have taken that skimpy roof right off. The large windows probably wouldn't keep an attacker out.  Since it was made from bricks, I might have said it would be safe from the Big Bad Wolf, but it looks like he is the one who left it in this condition.

Phone From Bar

I found this at a local bar and grill (click the picture to enbiggen). While there are a lot of kitschy places with random signs on the walls, this sign is authentic in that there is a payphone outside which you can use from your vehicle. As to why this sign is inside I cannot tell you.  Unless this is one of those "drive-ins" that we hear so much about.
