Bathroom humour, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Sometimes, bathroom humour is just fine. This sign was spotted in Calgary a few months ago.

No relief here!

Very unsubtle message for dogs … if only they could read! Spotted in Phoenix, Arizona, last month.

Big reward

I’m not sure this dog will ever be found … This poster was seen along the Embarcadero in San Francisco last month.

Keen marketing sense …

… clearly coupled with a tremendous sense of humour. Spotted at a fishmonger’s in Portland, Oregon, last week.

For your enjoyment today, a small collection of weirdness spotted around Calgary since this winter.

Seen at the now-closed Target store in Market Mall.

Another one from Market Mall.

This gooder’s from Sears.

Good try from Starbucks.

Outside Louise Riley Library in northwest Calgary.

P.S.: As you can see from the snow, the last image is several months old. The sign has since been corrected with the proper spelling of Louise.

Beware the apple-anche!

This pun-loving vendor at Pike Place Market in Seattle was very grateful (and oddly relieved) when she realized I understood the joke on this sign. Too often, she lamented, visitors would miss the word play and wonder what kind of Spanish-sounding variety an “apple-anche” was.
