Across the street, a neon sign -All you can eat for a dollar ninety nine -Aww, that old stew is the baddest in the land -But one dollarâs worth was all that I could standâŠ
We were 19 or so, my 3 buddies and I. We went to an âall-you-canâ for $3.99. When we finally paid the bill and left, the old man said, âyou no come back here, you eat too much. You come back, I charge you doubleâ. The food was good, but we never did go back.
I bet a good percentage of the people who see this canât figure out what the joke is because they truly believe that quotation marks indicate emphasis, not a word substitution. This is another thing that has driven me crazy for years.
Illegal immigrant fusion food, and it is more than I can stomach..Fact: Locally, we had a âchefâ invent and publish a recipe for Watermelon and Jalapeno Pepper Salsa. Actually thought it was a great idea..
if itâs not One Way, thatâs 400 bucks with court costs for parking on that side of the street. also, US-built roach coaches open on the RIGHT side. duh.
St. Pete had a battle royale with a hot dog vendor who wanted to work late. http://www.tampabay.com/news/humaninterest/st-petersburg-hot-dog-vendors-victory-over-city-hall-turns-bittersweet/1076815
My favorite example of a bi-lingual âfailâ was a sign in Los Angeles in front of store which advertised âGran Apertura!â, meaning âbig holeâ. The owner probably meant to use âGran Abiertoâ in the sense of âgrand openingâ.
Put the word fresh in quotes and suddenly itâs not so fresh any more. There was once a publisher of the Chicago Tribune who wanted to use quotes to emphasize everything. His editor couldnât make him see the problem until he said to the publisher, âOK, how about we run a photo and the caption reads, âTribune publisher and his quote-wife-unquote on the townâ?â Publisher finally saw the problem.

âPlease put the seat down to control odorâ is written in the Outhouses in some parks in Michigan. It doesnât specify who is quotedâŠ..
