The Monkey Cage

Signs, be them posts or boards, serve one purpose and one purpose only (that is if you discount the fact that some might use them as weapons or interpret them as decorative items...). That is, to send out a message, inform the reader about something. Sometimes though, things can turn out just so wrong even though the objective to tell people about something is so simple...

CHAPTER 0010 : WORDS DON'T COME EASY

Apparently they don't, not to the people who came up with these names and terms though. Have a look and you'll know what we're talking about...

We've seen a few stupid specimens of very bad/odd/unthinkable word-usage before but mostly one at a time, now we have 3 and I guess it would be fun to rank them so here goes...

COMING IN AT NUMBER 3;

One can only imagine how big 6 X's represent...

In 2nd place;

This is an interesting one... It can either be a very humiliating case of misspelling or could have an alternate meaning. Then again, which business would want to reveal their real initiatives as conmen?

This would have easily been number one. Unfortunately for the con people aged 3 and above though, the people in the donut business have outwitted their conning instincts.

Notice number one on the list. The words speak for themselves. Imagine someone asking you about your occupation and you having to blurt out "Oh, I'm an Ass Manager...". Okay.......

There you have it, words certainly don't come easy, not to some at least. It's just incredible how the person who wrote it can forward it for printing without noticing anything wrong, the printing party can go ahead with printing the material without noticing any oddities and the people who put these up for the public to see can easily place them in the open without noticing any laughable or questionable content. Simply incredible.
