Bargains, H2O Directions, Fresh Eats, Grovin’ and One Hot Flight – Friday Funnies are HERE!
A very happy September to you!
Every month we celebrate the unintended foibles of businesses, government agencies and everyday people who trust free, online apps or their neighbor’s cousin to correctly translate crucial information. A new month has arrived as has a new group of giggles, so let the FUNNIES COMMENCE!
On the way to Nairobi, Kenya, a sign on the Athi River’s Mombasa Road warns, “TAKE NOTICE: When this sign is under water, this road is impassable.”
In Auckland, New Zealand, a Korean restaurant proudly exclaims that, “We do not re-use the food.”
A Mexican discotheque announced its exclusivity by warning that it allows, “Members and Non-Members Only.”
There’s always a bargain to be found in Manila, the Philippines, such as the sign on an automobile that proclaimed, “Car and Owner for Sale.”
Because the passenger always comes first, Russia’s Aeroflot airlines advertised, “Introducing wide boiled aircraft for your comfort.”
