exiting against head-on traffic

October 12th, 2009

They have another one of these signs out on the street pointing into the exit, the arrow indicating, “Hey, that’s an exit!” rather than illustrating traffic flow. But the whole thing with the arrow pointing IN to the EXIT is more than enough ambiguity to create stuttered brake lights and jerky second-guessed steering. Then this on the way out and it all just becomes silly…

Exit Only

even digital billboards run on windows

Which is good because if you have any trouble, you have double the assistance of the Help and Support Center.

for your own safety, please… no spitting

October 5th, 2009

This is a sign on the Mars Petcare campus in China (Mars, as in M&Ms. And yes, they are in the pet food business – Pedigree, Whiskas, and Sheba are all Mars brands).

It’s a fun barrage of things that, for your own safety, you can’t do – including sleeping, spitting, playing, and taking pictures.

As for this photo itself, is it unauthorized? I don’t think so – I mean, really, you need a picture to reference if you’re going to remember all that.

No Spitting, Please

spontaneously combustible babies

August 20th, 2009

I guess there’s a few possibilities here. Could be the manufacturer, and the shirt itself is made from something like flash paper. Or maybe it’s a problem with consumers, putting space heaters in cribs or something.

Honestly, I can only think of one child who’s parents should be concerned about whether or not his clothes are flame-resistant.

But really, note how small that tag isn’t. They seem pretty serious.

hog-tying lex luthor

August 18th, 2009

I didn’t expect to top the last recession DVD salesman, but we have. Heroically. And on the same street corner.

I can honestly say I have never been closer to purchasing a DVD for $5 than I was right here. Commanding the attention of thousands of New Yorkers at rush hour on the corner of 7th Ave & 34th, this man unabashedly paced back and forth, fearlessly shouting, “Everyone! Come and see! Everyone! Come and see!”

I was secretly hoping he was about to hog-tie a tourist with a steel bar off the stair railing.

And while generally speaking I am an advocate of relevancy in marketing, I can’t fight the awesomeness of those cowboy boots.

we do billboards right… behind stuff

August 12th, 2009

I found myself unconvinced of the utmost effectiveness of this particular location.

a “gazillion” is a lot

August 10th, 2009

A whole lot.

My friend Meredith spotted this on the subway. This is Duane Reade reminding New Yorkers of a fact preferred left unsaid – and doing a marvelous job of illustrating the convenience of a little Purell hand sanitizer.

I like it.

Gazillion Germs

an utterly disturbing logo

July 8th, 2009

Back of the truck: what do you see?

Cow Man

If you said a mostly obscene shot of a dairy cow’s hindquarters wearing a sombrero, you are correct.

If you said a one-armed man with enormous hips wearing a pink frock, cow-patterned western jacket, and sombrero, you are also correct. A true “cowboy.”

“Country Fresh Dairy Products.” Naturally, country=western and dairy=bovine derrière

And voila! I’ll never look at milk and ice cream the same way.

UPDATE: Jane has brought it to my attention that the “sombrero” is the hat of the kid leading the cow, that you see on the side of the truck. Guess I didn’t stare long enough…

not a good sign

July 7th, 2009

My wife downloaded this in my honor from the Backgrounds app on her iPod and sent it to me. So simple and so very true.

Bad Sign

no swimming – surfing only

June 25th, 2009

I like the ambiguity of this sign. And also the inferred surf rage that could ensue in disobeying it.

There was another sign further down the beach that read, “No casting, fishing only.”

Surfing Only

Thanks to Mark for snapping this while he was in California…
