Cheapest Gas On The Planet...With A Catch

Today's submission comes from regular contributor, Shu.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

The price of gas at this gas station is just 0.00 9/10 per gallon. But I had to fill up at the gas station across the street because this one only accepts 9/10 penny coins.

Why Not 'Three Amigos'?

Today's post comes from Mrs. Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq.  Captain and The Missus recently took a trip to Mexico and this was the menu at one of their restaurants.

I'm told that the Captain did indeed order the Trilogy, so let's delve into that.  First, only one of those is actually a burrito.  In fact, 66.67% of those items are Asian treats and not a type of burrito.  And it the order listed the suggested order of consumption?  I guess I don't have a discerning enough palate it answer that.

What's Cookin'?

Here is a picture in classic WTFoto style.  I saw this in the summer and literally pulled over and talked to take this shot.

I wonder if you can specify how they are prepared.  Cajun worms?  Barbecue worms?  General Tso's worms?  There are so many options beyond just eating them fried.

Not The Recommended Usage

Back-to-back posts from Outlaw. Yay!

Yep, that is a standard issue porta-potty.  Zoom, zoom.

Outlaw writes:
Is this a porta-potty for women who want a swirly, or a porta-potty specifically for women from Australia? The icon is vague.

I used it anyway.

Pun-tatic!

I present yet another fine submission from Outlaw.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

He writes:

Apparently, not only was Schindler's name reaching new heights by saving thousands of Jews during WWII he also helps them to get to new heights in buildings with a fine line of elevators. Schindler's Lifts... GET IT? HAHAHAHAHhahahahahaha ha  .... haha... *whew*

Drinking On The Job?

I saw this sign on a wine chiller at one of the liquor departments in town.

Whoever made that sign would like to apologise [sic] that the chiller is temporaily [sic] out of service.  Somehow they did manage to spell "inconvenience" correctly.

Eatin' Pure

The ever-prolific ExplodyBones provides today's submission.  Click on the picture to enbiggen.

I'm sure that cat is voluntarily on that heater.  And the image of a family eating must be unrelated.  And I'm certain that using the word "sacrificing" is, in no way, directed at a family pet.  I'm just saying that if you take it all in together...

A Breast Stylist, If You Will

This billboard is posted just south of town.  I had to take the pic from the outer road, so I apologize for the poor quality.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

As a (spoiler alert!) male human, I understand "SIZE".  I also get "SHAPE".  But I have no idea what "STYLE" means in this context.  Is it like hair?  Can a woman have them with beachy waves? Fauxhawk? Mullet?

Gluten Free Lunch

Field correspondent Outlaw has been recruiting and has brought on or newest contributor, Tatts.  Tatts provided this gem.

Hmmm...  I wonder what this is getting at.  What in the world could it mean?  Why would a waxing salon call itself LunchBOX?  That doesn't make a lick of sense.

Without Gluten Without?

Field correspondent ExplodyBones sent me this series of pictures. Let's take a look-see...

Okay, fine.  Gingerbread cookie mix.  Gourmet.  Gluten free.  Unforgettably delicious!   Nothing WTFoto worthy here...

So, XO Baking Co.  is being multicultural.  I'm not a French speaker so I'm going to assume still not WTFoto-y.

And here is the language mashup.  "Sans Gluten Free".  You can't just start throwing words from different languages together; you might end up saying the exact opposite of what you intended.

Margaritas Worth Time Traveling For

WTFoto's newest correspondent, Mrs Musicmannn, snapped this picture and sent it my way.  Click on the picture to enbiggen.

Some would look at this menu and see a simple typographical error.  But I see through that ruse.  Sure the place may be open from 11:00am - 10:30pm on Saturdays, but if you can bend the laws of physics and can get there between 11:00pm and 10:30pm, that's the only time you can order a unicorn burrito (which is served with pico de gallo).

Start Them Young

Field correspondent Shu sent this my way.

Your child is entering kindergarten. What could be a better gift than...Beer Pong - Children's Version.

With Apologies To Brownsville Station

Field corespondent Musicmannn took this and got it to me.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Food Not To Scale

Yet another contribution from the ever prolific Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq.

He writes:

So I'm passing through the Houston airport when I see this gem on the tram. I then had to risk a TSA inquiry to snap the picture.  I'm pretty sure the two signs are not related, but I put away my giant soda and flat hamburger just in case.

Seems Legit

I saw these a couple months ago at a gift shop.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

I'm not sure but these might be counterfeit batteries.  Either that or someone bought a lot in bulk and also had a packaging machine.   I have never seen legitimate product in a fake package before; usually it's the other way around.

Frowny Face, Indeed

Sometimes, I have a bit of a slow day.  I was reading the back of a can of air freshener when something caught my eye:

Let's zoom in a bit on those pictures:

I agree with the big red X; that just doesn't look right to me.  

This NOT About The Military

Our newest correspondent, Hasher, sent me this and it took a conversation with Outlaw to understand why.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

I have the utmost respect for members of the Armed Services.  They are willing to exchange their lives for ours. My father and two of my brothers served in the military.  They are what makes this country great.

That being said, I'm pretty sure that is a German World War II uniform.

What A Bargain

Field correspondent PSYCHO(logist), send me this one.  Click it to enbiggen it.

There is a lot going on with these shelves.  There are some oil filters, some coffee cups, some spark plugs, a couple head lights and some random pegged items.  Did I miss anything?  Oh,yeah.  A large box of "BARGAIN SCREWS".  Not sure how I almost overlooked that.

It Might Be A Little Bit Racist

I'm going to make a rare exception to the "original photos only" rule I have here at What The Foto.  Field correspondent Outlaw saw the below billboard whilst traveling across this fine land of ours but was not able to get a picture.  He did an Internet search and found this image:

While the statement on this sign is technically true, it IS racist to ❤ ONLY your own people, which is the implication here.  And, just my opinion here, the phrase "White Pride" doesn't help the argument any.

Super Holiday Closings

Today's post comes from Field Correspondent Shu.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

He writes:  I like their thinking, but I'm disappointed they aren't also closed for Shark Week.

Editor's note:  No Memorial Day.  No Labor Day.  Certainly no MLK Day.  Sounds about right.

Put Some Peanut Butter On It

Field correspondent MusicMannn took this pic and sent it my way.

To quote The Bowler from Mystery Men: "No.  No, no, no.  No, no.  No."

A Pretty Crappy Dream

I saw this a couple weeks ago and found out that it is part of a series of these around town.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Yes, that looks a grill in what appears to be a snow globe (which makes sense in June).  The sign reads "THIS DREAM COULD BE YOURS!" However, upon closer inspection, you will note that it isn't a real grill but a terrible facsimile.  The lines aren't straight, the "food" looks awful and there a huge bubbles in the paint.  Who knows why they didn't use an actual grill?  But I guess if your dream is to have a non-functional, ugly grill here's your chance.

Iced Cheese!

I was helping out at an event being held in a building that occasionally serves concessions when I saw this sign.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Yeah, yeah, I know those are two separate items.  However, it sure looks like they are offering a cup of ice for $.25 and for only a quarter more, you can add cheese to it.  Nothing more refreshing than a cup of iced cheese.

Stonehenge Safety

The ever productive Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq. provides yet another submission.  Click the picture to enbiggen

He writes: "As an attorney I greatly appreciated the warning of this dangerous condition.  It really is very practical, but just looks like a milk crate Stonehenge, so I snapped the pic."

Everyone knows that the druids were very safety conscious.  Come on, the long flowing robes were basically the first version of scrubs.  Everything about them showed great concern for the safety of their fellow man (except for the human sacrifice thing.)

Or Use It As A Weapon...

I saw this in a grocery store's cafe and had to do a double take.  Please click the picture to enbiggen.

For those who didn't enbiggen, the sign reads "PLAY ME! Community ukulele donated by the Ukulele Fight Club".  I my opinion, that may be the singularly best named organization ever.  I may have to go to a meeting/brawl some time just to see what happens at one.

Update: Correspondent ExplodyBones pointed out that they are breaking the first two rules of Ukulele Fight Club.

Just Like Every Child Is A Winner...

Another submission from regular contributor Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq.

How is that special?  It seems that you have either your special margarita, or your "every day" margarita but one cannot be both.

Editor's Note: Of course you can have a special every day.  I know some people who are very special every day.

Well, Lookie Here

Some of the best WTFotos cannot be stopped.  Field correspondent Outlaw said he doesn't even remember taking this but, thankfully, he did.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Someone at that store has an awesome sense of humor.  My favorite thing about this is the wide selection of sizes offered. Of magnifying glasses that is.

Has Sweeny Todd Set Up Shop?

Field correspondent, Lando, sent this my way.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Nothing frightening about this sign. The printed letters aren't straight, the arrow is hand drawn and there is a tiny dollar sign (with no price).  And it is "HAIR CUT", singular.  Nope, not a trap at all.

Apparently One Is Enough

Today's post comes from regular contributor Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq.

I found this funny as it is "a" suggestive comment.  What kind of movie would only have one?  Usually it is all or nothing.  And what did that comment suggest; that you must bring your parent along and isn't that when you want to leave your parent at home?  I wanted to rent the movie just to see if I could pick out which comment it was.

Editor's note: Everyone knows how delicate the snowflakes are these days, so even one suggestive comment could cause permanent psychological damage.  The MPAA just cannot take that risk.

At Least It Has Free Shipping

Today's post comes from our newest field correspondent, Thintoast.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

I may not be a financial analyst but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express  last night...

Your Packages Check In But They Don't Check Out

The ever brilliant Griz sent me this picture and the accompanying comments below.  Please to enjoy. 

Or,
All your package are belong to us.
Or,
What part of "letter" carrier do you not understand?
Or,
Screw it, I'll spend five minutes jamming this into your mailbox instead of  two just walking it to your door. I got spare time.
Or,
My bunion hurts. Now your knuckles will, too.
Or,
We put the Vice in Postal Service, as in, we used one to get this package in your mailbox, sucka!
Or,
Hey, I noticed you didn't pay for package protection...

Who Wants Soup?

Before this week's post, What The Foto now has its own email address.  If you have a picture that fits the bill, send it to WTFotoPics [at] outlook [dot] com (spelled out to reduce spam).

On to Millersburger's great pic!

I'm making this another audience participation post.  Put your suggestions in the comments and I'll post the best ones here.  I shall begin...

 - Mmmmm...  Salty...

 - Isn't that where pea soup comes from?

 - Contains natural and artificial cock flavors.
 - Outlaw: "I'll have the clam chowder, please." (Editor's note: I prefer chowerless clams)
 - Thomas: "Grace has been cockin' up the soup since 1922. Put some in your mouth and you'll be duly impressed."
 - Anonymous: "Maybe its just soup made with man chicken flavor?" (Editor's note: By "man chicken", I hope you're referring to the large chicken Peter fights on Family Guy)
 - Thintoast: "HAHAHA!!! This is a penis joke.  (Editor's note: This gets my vote for best comment so far.)

Too Stoned To Know If You're Stoned?

Today's submission comes from field correspondent, Outlaw...

The dollar store, I've discovered, is a fine place to get cleaning supplies for super cheap. Granted, you won't find everything you need at such a price, but you might wander upon something you least expect. Normally I don't pay much attention to anything other than what I'm there for, but I'm glad I saw this. I actually had to stop and go back to make sure that I saw what I thought I saw. 

I'm going to be perfectly honest here, I wasn't even aware that there were at home drug tests like this. Then again... I suppose there might be a market for those who enjoy smoking from time to time and might be worried about a random drug test, or perhaps they have a job interview coming up. Who knows. Now, the pregnancy test I get. Signs pop up where you wonder, you don't know for sure and you need an answer... But how blitzed do you have to be that you need to administer your OWN test to see if you've smoked pot? "Wow man... Did I smoke last night? No... Nah, I'm sure I didn't... Then again, I am really hungry for Doritos's and pizza... I could put away a case of Mountain Dew... Maybe I'm high? Nah... Maybe... Shit, I'd better get tested..."

Generic, Slightly Racist, Seasoning

I saw this while shopping the other day.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

The good folks at Family Gourmet are selling genuine "Soul Food Seasoning".  Hmmm, let's delve into this a bit.  Wikipedia has a list of soul food which includes extremely varied foods from fried chicken to pickled pigs feet to sweet potato pie.  I highly doubt that there is one seasoning which one would want to use in all of these recipes.  I guess there is a possibility that Family Gourmet doesn't really know what soul food is.  I wonder what the percentage is of Caucasians working there...

If It's STD, You Don't Pee

I was sent this a while ago by someone and I cannot recall who.  Let me know and I will provide proper credit.

If you're here at the STD (sex) clinic (doctor) because your genitalia (hooha or wee wee) is causing discomfort (ouchies), your urine (pee) will be needed for diagnostics (tests) to determine (figger out) what your diagnoses (how much antibiotic) is.

Also, stop sleeping around and keep it in your pants for a while.

Diaper Surprise!

Field correspondent Mrs. ExplodyBones found this and sent it my way (sorry it took so long to post).  Click the picture to enbiggen.

There is sooooo much wrong with this product.  Apparently this doll's name is "Peanut Big Top".  Odd, but whatever.  And her eyes are buttons with eye lashes.  Then, of course, there are the phrases "Diaper Surprise" and "I Magically Poop Charms!".  The diapers themselves have pictures which "Magically Appear Again and Again".  But I think the most disturbing thing is the expression on the face of the little girl as she discovers the diaper surprise:

Be Patriotic!

Longtime correspondent, Griz, found this at a major home improvement store and sent this my way on the day before Lincoln's birthday. For those who aren't in the know.  He lives in a southern-ish state...

I voted!  Unfortunately they were all out of stickers.  Also, today is a state holiday celebrating such loyal patriots as Robert E Lee and "Stonewall" Jackson. Conveniently occurring one business day before the day honoring of no doubt one of their biggest and most ardent fans.  But it was election season after all and I had to cast a straight ticket vote for the Green Party. Unfortunately that day the brown party won in an absolute landslide. Nobody stuck around for the airing of the victory speech, I can tell you that much.  It was a real groaner.

The Way To A Woman's Heart Is Through Her Hairy Chest

I saw this among all of the other Valentine's Day candy.

So, yeah, this exists.  A furry, heart-shaped box full of (one has to assume) beef jerky. The ideal way to end a relationship on St. Valentine's Day.

The Ultimate Full Service Station

Here is another contribution from field correspondent, Shu.

Heh, heh. Gas...

Disclaimer Translation Not Incomplete

I saw this the other day with browsing through Christmas gift clearance.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

Man do I love it when English is created through an automated system.  Let's get into this, shall we? "If user do..."  hold it right there.  First mistake three words in, though certainly not the most egregious. "..operate the goods well..." That is grammatically correct but quite awkward to say. "...cause any damage of accidents..." This is my personal favorite, which I may have to start peppering into conversations. "...the company dose not in the commitment." Uhhhh, what? "Made in China" and translated by a first year ESL student.  

And When He Opened The Seventh Seal...

Our newest correspondent, Mr. T, snapped this picture while shopping the other day.  Enbiggen at your own peril.

I have to assume that this is a sign of the impending apocalypse.  Seriously, why does this product exist?  I understand that there was a dearth of fecal-based toys but I think that there was probably a good reason for that.  Maybe I'm just old fashioned that way...

Caution: Product May Contain Truth

Field corresponded Millersburger provides another great submission.  Click to enbiggen.

It's time for another episode of "Caption that WTFoto"!  I shall begin.

• Odd, I would think that obesity would be listed before sugar.
• I wish he would have taken a pic of the nutrition information because I can't remember what the USDA recommendation of obesity is.
• I think I'm going to start using the word "plush" in place of "obese".
• These are great because they start with a nose of obesity and finish cleanly with just a hint of pistachio.
