This may not be wrong if it’s on the car of someone who bought a Joel Osteen book and found it didn’t solve their financial problems.

One of these days I’m going to find a law that abuses quotes like this, break it, and then take my case all the way to the Supreme Court. Headline: Florida Man “Breaks” Law, Goes Free.

Sidenote: can someone find me a sign with “caution” in quotes? That’d make my year.

“Best” BBQ

with 7 comments

 I’m not sure I’d trust BBQ cooked by what appears to be Mr. Tumnus from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. There’s some definite hoof action going on. I also enjoy how the senior citizen on the right is so very naturally dropping a bomb from the marketing department in the middle of her dinner.

low prices on “ALL” SUB

with 3 comments

When you read this, you must mentally lower your mind’s voice for “SUB.” I imagine the late Don LaFontaine (a.k.a. “The Movie Trailer Guy”) speaking it.  ”In a world of high sub prices… danger lurks. Coming this summer: Low Prices on All SUB. Rated ‘R.’”

An inconvience truth

with 3 comments

I love how in certain circumstances, “accept” and “except” have opposite meanings. Alas, their lack of belief in the fabled year of “2007″ leads me to think that they intend to commence anti-check discrimination rather than end it.
