What The Parking?

I will be traveling next week so there won't be updates for a few days.  I leave you to mull over this one.

Now I'm no civil engineer but something about this just isn't right.  I've had to use parking like this but it's usually at a concert or someone's house party.  I certainly hope everyone wants to leave at the same time...

Badass Grandma

I was going through some old pictures and found this one.  I had completely forgotten I had taken it.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

 

This is really less of a What The Foto and more of just a fantastic picture.  To set the scene, I am at Cedar Point Amusement Park (known as the roller coaster capital of the world).  That little old lady has just boarded the Top Thrill Dragster (a 17 second, 120 MPH ride) and she could not be happier.  She comes off looking a bit frighten in the picture but let me assure you, she was smiling ear-to-ear when she got off the ride.  I also saw her boarding the Maverick and the Millennium Force.  I just hope I can be that cool at some point in my life.

Chickens Go "Moo"

I saw this on a menu during lunch a couple days ago.  Please click the picture for enbiggened goodness.



It is extremely generous for them to offer to make the Pollo El Jimador with either chicken or beef.  And confusing.  But since I don't have their recipe, I can't says it's incorrect.  Maybe they have a genetics lab somewhere in the kitchen.

Dig In (But Not Too Deeply)

So, I take a look at this picture and I'm not sure why it qualifies as a What The Foto.  That crazy opossum standing on his head while reading to a group of some sort of rodents?  No.  The huge expanse of asphalt as the playground?  No.  Then I'm told to focus on the background on the right side of the scene.  Let's zoom in on that, shall we:

 

Nothing screams "childhood fun" like playing 10 feet from a cemetery.  And it looks like anyone playing soccer would be constantly retrieving the ball from between headstones.  And that's what makes it a WTFoto.

Spel Chek Iz Gud

I understand cute spellings for trade names, but if you are promoting a spell check product, perhaps you should spell 'check' properly.

Editor's Note: What I think is odd is the fact that they chose to "misspell" only two words, making it look much less intentional.  Of course there is the possibility that they want to look like idiots...

Stop! In The Name Of Shrimp!

I saw this sign on an exit door the other day when I was leaving the grocery store.  It's a bit demanding, in my opinion.  I don't recall shrimp even being on my shopping list.  Does this type of thing even work?  Now excuse me, I've got to get my ass back in there and get some shrimp.

When Irony Just Can't Wait

I saw this machine in a gas station Men's room while on road trip recently.  Click the picture to enbiggen.  Now, I know that these machines have been a staple in restrooms for a long time.  The reason it is on this website is the tag line that Protocol chose to use: "When Life Just Can't Wait..." Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the entire point of using condoms?  To make life wait??  And bonus points are awarded to the fact that the third product is not actually a prophylactic but, instead, maximum strength "Horny Goat Weed".

Cover Your Butt, Put Out Your Butt and Don't Shoot Anyone In The Butt

Field correspondent Shu has graced us with another submission.

This is signage at the entrance to a gun shop in rural North Carolina. In a place of business where management needs to tell customers to pull their pants up and not to shoot guns inside, you would think that someone lighting up a cigarette would be the least of their worries. Second Amendment is alive and well here, provided you put your pants on and your cigarette out before entering.

Editors Note:  You know, bullets and cigarettes are equally deadly, it's just a matter of the timeline.  And what in the hell does "Show me some of that country money" mean?

NEWSFLASH: Massaging Gums Increases IQ

Field correspondent Bolo sent this my way.

 

This week I was on a Science Camp trip as a chaperone and was amazed at what I learned from these kids. These kids are in an honors biology class and are some of the most intelligent kids in the school. I have often wondered why the Asian students always perform so well at academics. I have thought it might be genetics, or a result of a fish heavy diet as it has always been known that fish is brain food.

 

Imagine my surprise when I walked into the bathhouse and found that one of the Asian students had brought this from home. I would never have thought this was the secret!
