Sometimes I don’t know exactly what to write about some of the pictures y’all send in.  And then sometimes I just think the pictures just speak for themselves.

Leah says she’s amused by the concept of a hot smoked meat cocktail.  I have nothing further to add.

I have a new definition of insanity: trying to hold online ads to any kind of standard of… well, anything.  Common decency, common sense, basic grammar, take your pick.  This one only abuses a hyphen, but you know I’m right about the genre.

Reporter #1 fears we should file this under “totally lost causes,” and I’m pretty sure she’s right.

Sometimes, even rules don’t make things better.

Chris H. says his wife found this and thought of us.  Thank you, Chris’s wife!  For thinking of us, at least.  I can’t really thank the universe for pointing out that even correctly-followed rules and conventions can sometimes fail to provide clarity.  Sigh.

This is another one of those typos that is probably totally easy to explain, but points to a frustrating lack of proofreading.

I’m sure that the original typist entered “tagged/towed,” and then noticed the text was aligning improperly and modified it — partially.  And so we end up with a “Paris in the the spring” situation that Kacia L. says she didn’t even notice on any of the “countless” times she’s walked past this sign.  The brain is a funny thing!

Dave’s comment on this one is “Unnecessary punctuation LOL.”  Um, yes.  Also, Dave came up with the delightful title of this post.  It’s all real words!  It’s just nonsensical!

I’m now going to amuse myself for five minutes or so by contemplating whether this is actually wrong.  It’s certainly annoying, and I’d throw something at it if I had something throwable.  Hmmm.
