This sign is fascinating. I think "dripping wet" actually means "really soapy." But maybe it's just saying "it's cool -- add all the clothes and detergent you want and everything will be OK."
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.

Maybe they'll come out dry.
Or maybe Blackbeard is right.
why is Detergent capitalized?
Maybe "dripping wet" is like "smoking hot"?

The combination of stray capital letters, "unnecessary" quotation marks and emphatic underlining is textbook. Much to learn here.
