what the kids are calling 'em


Mary spotted this one at a salvage/discount store. She might try some of these newfangled "jeans" but I don't know...

Can this sign be any uglier? Those prices are all squished into orange oblong shapes.
It reminds me of cartoons done by little kids where they draw the speech bubble first, then cram the words in later.

I also hate people whose 9's look like G's (realizing as I type this that a computer's 9 does, in fact, curve like a lower case G...)

Whoever made this person suffers from a fear of insignificance: notice how they try to draw attention to absolutely every element on the poster: < womens : > for example. It actually works against them in that we end up looking at all the punctuation and underlining instead of the actual words. :)

Maybe they mean an approximation of jeans. Not quite jeans, but -- you know -- "jeans".
