WTF, Live Oak Market?? Do you WANT me to stab myself in the eyes?
I’m not going to waste a keystroke on discussing how f*cked up this sign is. Instead, I will show you 3 signs that are better than this one.

What a deal! A hand-drawn sign gets your message across while providing a little flair of personality. An added bonus is that your customers will generally be forgiving of occasional inaccuracies.
Sometimes a good sign doesn't need words at all. A clear set of graphics indicates just as much as words can. I am very clear on what I should do here: Ram into the signs or turn around and go home.
A combination of words and graphics can really get your message across. In this case, that message is "Look! My jazz hands are covered in olive oil! Hooray!"
Now, go grab a camera and send me your favorite WTF examples. They might be featured in an upcoming edition of WTF Wednesday!

hee hee! Love these! You are so funny :)
Oh, I know! Let’s use the comments to guess all the things wrong with the first sign.
I’ll start: no alignment what-so-ever.
I’m not sure what kind of promotional would induce me to “buy 2″ beers, while only “getting 1″, but sure, I’ll bite.
Oh, I’m so going to send you pictures. I make no guarantees about their appropriateness.
Lani- I think I’ve made it perfectly clear about how I feel about appropriateness.
Lori- Okay, I’m next: Double outline makes me want to throw up a little…
I can add another: all caps in a comic sans type font. eeeewwww!
These are great! So funny! And, I have a pic for you!
Can’t wait to see everyone’s pics! I’ve already had a few sent in. :)
