What I find funny is that on a lot of these, the quotes are (incorrectly) used for emphasis. Here they use the quotes and the more correct underlining.
This is not just wrong, but makes no sense. Why would they even need to emphasize "your"? Of all the words on that sign, the only words less important than "your" are maybe "to" and "the".
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I would change the quotes in the title to this:
avoiding "identity" theft
Yeahhhh
