i hate them. it's been happening a lot more recently, too. i know that everyone messes up sometimes but if you're putting a huge sign outside of your business or place of work then you should either make sure the person you have making the sign can spell OR let someone else do it who CAN spell.
example #1: on my way home from school the past week i passed a little shop that was a clothing store and is now being taken over by a beauty salon. there were about 5 signs out on the windows, the sidewalk, and the door. all of them saying the same thing, all of them misspelled. the signs read, "NEW BEATY SALON COMING SOON." beaty, really? i wouldn't trust them with my cosmetic needs.
example #2: in temecula, there is a lovely little place called old town and it is where my mother lives. the place is laced with little shops that sell things people would never buy, including lawn ornaments. overpriced lawn ornaments to be exact. i guess they were having a summer sale and they decided to leave it up to an idiot to hang the huge clearance banner. but someone spelled it "CLEARENCE" and it bugged the shit out of me the whole time i was there.
there's this website called illiteratebusinesses.com and it has a bunch of pictures of stupid signs by stupid people.
off to enjoy the rain now. :)
