Found you through Cake Wrecks. This is amazing! A woman from my church places quotation marks for emphasis in her emails, saying things like "we 'really' care about this" and "I 'truly' believe she will be healed". It just makes things look like she's writing sarcasm...
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.

it prolly has to do with fishes or something so the quotes could make 'sense' here, from a marketing perspective
I think fish is the correct answer. But it's still stupid.

I'm pretty sure that the combination of "scale" and splash mean it's going to be a fish store of some sort. I think it's a cute play on words.
bethany's comments make what would otherwise just be tacky suddenly hilarious.
Maybe they are trying to draw attention to the fact that they sell high end lizards? (thus the "scale"?)
A fish theme is definitely the answer. The quotes indicate a bad pun, which is furthered by the "making a splash" remark.
