A Turd By Any Other Name...

Would a rose by any other name still smell as sweet? Yes, it would! But a turd-bag sign is a different story. I found this sign (That's right, I did NOT make this one!) in a new, rather upscale housing development. It stands in front of a mansion like abode, across the road from a country club. What a splash of class, right? As you can see, it's not only ugly, it's ineffective too. Properly designed, this sign could encourage people to dispose of their bags in a more fitting place. This one almost asks for turd bags! Someone made this gem on their home computer, obviously frustrated over the unsightly accumulation of litter on the curb. Now there is an unsightly sign pointing out the unsightly accumulation. A good signmaker could have helped here, at a cost of under twenty dollars. Much like the Tattoo shop policy signs I posted earlier, a well designed, politely worded sign would actually make the neighbors feel BAD about leaving the doggy bags in front of the McMansion, and not just make the pile look even worse.
