Peter saw this one at work. Things that could be included in the definition of "out of date": smelly, weird-looking, or something the cleaner would like to eat.
I prefer to interpret "out-of-date" in the sense it's typically used. In that case, your bottle of Pom is safe, but that case of Tab is gonna get tossed.
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.

The fridge is cleaned on a Friday evening... but which Friday evening?
brilliant.
The mall pizza place I worked at in high school made their dough "fresh" daily.
Hi, I submitted the picture.
If I recall correctly, the fridge was checked at Easter and someone found yoghurts dating back to Christmas...
