Simple and to the point. And they even provide pictures to be perfectly clear. Gotta love that!
Gary - Graphic and simple, but the grammar and punctuation leave something to be desired.
gosh, it's so much easier shopping when one is completely naked...
Mouse - Actually the sign at Wilkes Bashford said, "If you walk in nude, you'll walk out in Versace."
Oh those hot boys coming in there shirtless and stuff? I'd love to see that, but now this stupid sign has prevented all these extra eye candy!
HMPH!
WAT - In this 'hood, it's not hotties. Just fat guys who got hot and went to the C-store to buy beer and candy and are not eye candy.
well, perhaps next time I'm in town I'll check out to see if wilkes bashford honors their promise....the mouse could use a bit of versace - would be a nice compliment to usual threads.....
Mouse - I think they have a $500 cover charge to enter the store these days.
is says nothing about a store it clearly reads "stove."
Gavin - Good point. Clearly it says: Please come in this stove -- Fully clothed. Because -- This is a Public Place. Thank you --.-
With that syntax, it's an invitation to enter a stove named Fully clothed which is a public place.
Curiously, the Spanish sign has a smiley face named Tom after Gracias, but there is no such symbol in the English sign. Also, apparently wearing a tank top means you're fully clothed and leads to having a smile on one's face.
Hi there Junkthief! I'm soooo sorry I've been missing your posts.. I was so busy with other stuff.. But do realise that I did think of you almost every single day! And that's a fact. Big kiss and hugs!
Nikolas - I think of you regularly too and need to get over to see the spring flowers in the Digibudi Garden. Hugs and kisses on this end as well.
