Authorities in Oak Lawn, Illinois are adding gag signs beneath regular stop signs to catch drivers’ attentions. The new signs say such things as:
But strangely, no mention of Hammertime. Link -via Bits and Pieces
STOP . . .
• *In the Naame of Love
• *And Smell the Roses
• *Really. You Gotta Stop.
• *Right There Pilgrim
• *Or We'll Hunt You Down
• *Hold it Right There Buster
• *Then You Can Go
• *Whoa Whoa Wait a Minute
• *Stop Stop Stop Stop Stop Pleeeease
• *Or the Police Will Yell at You
• *Not an Optional Sign
• *It's Really Self-Explanatory
• *Means That You Aren't Moving
• *Even When No One's Looking
• *Whoa
• *Billion Dollar Fine

Reading comprehension suffers yet another in a long series of slaps in the face.
And the possibility of people interpreting the stop signs themselves as fakes is too big a risk to take with people's lives.
"I'm sorry I ran over your daughter, but isn't that a funny sign?"
