I'm not sure if those even qualify as quotation marks or apostrophes, but they are so befuddling that I had to post it anyway. I think they may be questioning the very existence of the letters t, h, and e. Or it's a very confusing contraction.
None of those are apostrophes, except maybe the last one. The others are all open quotes. Which leaves me looking for a couple more close quotes. Looking in vain. . .
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.

Jaw-dropping.
"Flat" rate, more like it.
What about the missing decimal and unit? The flat rate is four hundred? 400 what? Goldfish? Shekels?
The price to park there doubled recently?
I'm not sure I need to go to 'T'H'E' Academy that bad.
i haven't been this confused since M*A*S*H.
This made me laugh out loud. Thank you!
I'm sure that seemed like a really great, cutting edge idea at the 't'i'm'e'.
