I was walking home from having dinner out with a mate when I went past a shop that had a sign that said "MEN SWEAR". Well, I thought, that's pretty f&*cking obvious. Of course it didn't really say that, after a split second I realised it just said menswear. I was pretty disappointed, as you can imagine. Is it just me, or are there ambiguous signs everywhere? I remember the ones in pubs that said "Ladies Lounge", which was certainly true, or the ones on ashtrays that said "smokers please", which wasn't.
In a similar vein, I'm still recovering from seeing the truck with "WASTE RESOURCES" written on the side (somewhere in this blog.. Feb?).
