The sign said that one cannot swim,
But the chances of that were quite slim.
It looked like pea soup,
But the color of poop,
To swim up Shit Creek you'd have to be dim.

Syllables Matter [Lyric Poem]
Sometimes the syllables matter:
It meant to say, “Stow cars away
Someplace that is not here.”
But just one unfortunate break
Is all it takes to make it say:
“Middling Monarchs are Banned.”

Vowel Goof, Or: Spelling Matters [Lyric Poem]
The sign read: "Flee Market,"
and so, of course, I fled.
The hawkers called to me
as I sped like hot lead.
From what I was fleeing,
I have no idea.
But I found a cheap chair
down at the IKEA.

Tautology [Lyric Poem]
It seems there's no need for a sign that says: "No Outsiders, Inside!" Wherever you may draw the line, it can't sensibly be denied that the outsider who steps across - having crossed - is an insider. No need to consult the rules or boss Re: the "IN" side of the divider.

I wonder if scale of the diagram is indicative of the degree to which each is a problem, or what?

DAILY PHOTO: Fancy Sign for Unfancy Behavior
Taken May 23, 2014 in Indiranagar.
This was taken at the Goethe Institute in Bangalore. Normally one doesn’t see such fancy signage requesting one refrain from urination because… well, because all the urine on such signs tend to erode the paint away.
