My sister Meredith and her boyfriend Calvin spotted this one at a fair in Michigan. I think the combination of "please" and the tiny "do not" give one plausible deniability for ringing the bell anyway.
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 am a writer, PhD candidate and, most importantly in this debate, a closed captioner.
It is obvious that people have a hard time writing; just look at most print ads/copy.
If someone can't punctuate properly, fuck 'em.
Rather than waste time critiquing others' insignificant work, why not edit yours again?
I don't really get your point, but I think you should read my FAQ - see the sidebar.
I missed what the "debate" is in this context.
Bethany, fuck 'em, your blog totally rules.
Wow, they really want you to ring that bell!
Screw 'em Bethany, some people will never get the point. They obviously have no sense of humor.
"Thank you" for your "insights", ashleyallison. I didn't know there was a debate going on, but you are definitely "The Winner".
