It hurts my feelings...


...not because the shop owner couldn't spell. Not because they hung it up. But because someone, who obviously works for a reputable sign printing company, let this catastrophe go out the door. I may have to get out my can of red spray paint tonight. Do you think I would get arrested for taking charge of this situation? I, as a self-proclaimed grammar policeman, don't think they would arrest a fellow officer of the law.

Have you read the book, "Eats, Shoots, and Leaves?" Take an after picture, if you do decide to enforce any spelling laws.

I vote for the spray paint... but take gavin with you so he can take shots of you in the act... and then the after pic too!

Actually, that's a perfectly bilingual sign, and I think it was on purpose. Thanks for sharing!

Is that your brother endorsing Spanglish?

Fine, Spanglish hurts my feelings.

Devin beat me in saying it's Spanglish, but I saw way too many "bilingual" signs in New Mexico. They hurt my feelings too.
