I don't know who calls a dishcloth a "nice gift" but I would put that in quotation marks too. "Happy anniversary, honey, now get to scrubbing those dishes!" Thanks, Melanie.
I like to imagine that some real redneck wrote the note about them being "great gifts"... then someone with even a modicum of taste, and a slightly less red neck (and a sense of irony) came along and added the quotes.
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.

That's pretty funny...I'm guessing this picture was taking in a real hick-town, right?

Dish cloths =/= great gifts.
