Hello from a new reader who works for a catalog company where the "writers" overuse quotation marks on a "regular basis." But I am a copy editor with a mighty pen. Out damn quotation marks! Out I say!
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 don't know, I think the quotes are ok on this one since its a pun.

*sigh* do we have to have this conversation again? If you have to use QMs to point out your pun (and you don't), it's probably not that funny.
Yup, this one passes the litmus test: not funny.
hahaha, comic sans...
