I wonder how you might get "arrested" for fake "shoplifting." Also, this poster seems to follow the same hyphen conventions as this old favorite. Thanks, Renee.
I am thinking 'Hats-or-beer' is a brand name, and 'From-cases' is an abreviation of 'fromage-cases'. These would be something like the plastic milk cases that have been ripped off as storage crates. Since they are not for sale they can't technically be 'shoplifted'. Should you be found with one the owners 6'6" brother Burt will show up in a "uniform" and put a stop to it. Whew! End of translation.
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.

The word 'police' will be called, that's all. POLICE!
Well, if the 'police' show up, they'll have to 'arrest' someone.
Why do I have memories of GOB's 'hot cops' from Arrested Development?
