I'm having a hard time understanding the voice of the sign.
It seems to start with a cutesy comment from management, "I hope you enjoy your tubby."
But if the sign is from the manager's point of view, it make the following really strange, "For the sake of my inner workings, please do not put any bubble bath or shampoo in the water."
Though if I be more reasonable, which probably should be "reasonable", and assume that the tub is speaking to me, then I come to the conclusion that I cannot use shampoo in the tub.
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.

I'm guessing they ARE something other than soothing or they wouldn't advise you not to put them in the water....

Very strange, indeed.
It begs the question: how am I supposed to wash my hair if I can't use shampoo? Or am I supposed to wash, but not rinse it?
I must add that I do like the rubber duck with the hat. More hotels should provide rubber ducks.
wv: bruiw - The person who wrote this sign must have been drinking some strange bruiw.
Maybe they're like Gremlins: Put 'em in water and you REALLY won't be soothed!
I'm with you Paul, i'm with you...
WV: poledeli, the respectful way to speak to your rubber duckie (ie politely)
