I'm out of the chair and using a walker now, but I don't think I'll visit this zoo.

There are trucks in my area that read "your poo is our bread and butter.
Getting Real Specific
a lot of people do this on private properties with longer driveways, because you're more likely to notice a speed limit sign not ending in a 0 or 5 and therefore more likely to drive slower. they're usually not the exact speed limit to go, but it does encourage you to go slower.

To make you read/pay attention to it, but yes, took me a minute

Yes but you need to use the same letter, and first and last letter stays.. Then you can read everything!
Load More Replies...You know those scam emails (inheritance, send me money, etc.) where so, so many words are misspelled? There's a theory that this is used to weed out smart people, with hopes that only people who are too dumb to know it's misspelled will be responding, and those are the easiest targets. I wonder if 'SMA' here is trying the same?
I always spell check them and then tell them to get a life

It’s porevn that you can reragane lttrees in a word as long as the beginning and end letters are rgiht and people can still read it. :) most people. :)
How much do you want to bet the phone number is actually 661-UBY-PSAA?
Help, I tried to read this and I smell burnt toast. I have no idea what this is trying to say to me.
Smart one time billboard buy, tbh. In a world so thirsty for content, he has other people spreading his ad around for him, and he's not even paying them.
This might get my attention but would not get my business. I'd like slightly more attention to detail from anyone I hire. I'd also like to be completely clear on what the hell they do.
Actual Billboard In Rural Missouri
As a rural Missourian I can completely believe this. One near my house has a poorly photoshopped electric-green rattlesnake that hurts my eyes every time I drive by

Gah! Gotta provide some context for non-Christian residents, or they'll think you're vampires or cannibals!
Should I Just Go Out Back, Then?
Indeed, why throw money in a bottomless pit? It's strange how some people think that destroying other people's property is hilarious. But if someone picks a flower from their garden, they scream bloody murder.

Not An Irritation At All. Just Adding To The Things Needing To Avoid!
I respect our Amish communities and even buy groceries from their shops - they have amazing antibiotic-free meat and wonderful produce, but the buggies sharing toads gets dangerous. Since they don't buy gas, they don't pay taxes for road improvement, but their horse shoes and buggy wheels tear up the asphalt. Also, many don't even use lanterns at night and it's dangerous. I grew up in mountainous, rural PA, and hated watching the horses struggle up and down the mountains too.

Welcome to our ool. Notice there is no "P" in it. Please keep it that way.
What is it with BP's truncation policy? Must every posting be shortened? A post with 34 entries is just fine!
It's a clickbait site. 34 does not sound snappy in a clickbait title advertised all over the place.
