Bathroom signs

These are the bathroom signs at Jensen’s Bøfhus. I thought the sign for the women’s restroom was pretty funny. Leslie got a picture of it. Can you tell which is the women’s restroom and which is the men’s?

What nice clowns!

I have to thank my friend Leslie (in Sweden) for this. This was on a dessert menu when she and her husband went to Amsterdam recently.

On her blog, Leslie wrote:

This was the English translation of a dessert on the menu at the restaurant tonight.
In case you are having trouble reading it…

What a nice clowns! It will be a surprice whether you will receive the red, the green or the yellow one.
How will you manage to eat the ice cream without a spoon.
Just wait some minutes and then you can take it out in a special way.

Something smells

I like it when a product gets right to the point.

Message from the lawn

My mother-in-law took a picture of this sign in a park during her recent trip to China. I thought it was very polite.

Da Müsli

I can imagine the office meeting…..
“Müsli is generally considered a breakfast food for old people. How do we market this to the younger generation?”
“How about hip-hop müsli?! We’ll call it Da Müsli. That’s what these youngsters are into.”

The best one yet….

I have to thank my friend Monica for this one. She saw this with the pet food in the grocery store this weekend.

Quit messing with my mind!!

The apartment complex posted this sign on our entryway last week. It’s about spring cleaning in the area. It’s really bugging me. For those who can’t read Swedish, the dates on it read…

TUESDAY, April 11

and WEDNESDAY, April 12

For those who don’t understand the problem….. today is Wednesday, April 11.

And our complex loves to post angry letters when no one shows up for events, so I expect to see a new sign soon.
