Am I the only one that read "no shitting" on first glance?
Wait. Is that chair gold and white or is it blue and black?
Is it okay to make fun of uneducated people? I assume it is okay on a case by case basis.People who call the stretch of blocks from seventh street to fourteenth street on avenue a "upper avenue a" are stupid.The guy who wrote this sign, just uneducated. See the difference?
Possibly not uneducated; seems to me this is someone for whom English is not their first language, but they knew enough to write this sign, which is clear enough to be generally understood. Wonder if we'd do as well in their native tongue.
