Poor cakes

The pie, the pasty and the sandwich all have something to show for their efforts, although it's far from clear exactly what it is they own.

It's a different story for the poor old cakes. They have nothing.

A real privy

Sometimes, when you're out and about and get caught short, don't you wish you could find a nice private place of your own to do whatever's necessary?

Well, Jon C has found that very place in San Jose Caltrain station.

How very convenient.

Indecent offer

20% off sounds pretty good.

But 20% off every day? Well, as Greg L says, that's just the standard price then, surely?

Talk about being taken to the cleaners.

Keep left, right?

Thanks to Trev L for sharing this one, though I'm not sure where it originated.

But I'd have loved to have been there to witness the result.

Trumped

Before he and his catchphrases are lost and forgotten about forever, I thought I'd take this opportunity to remind ourselves of his visionary campaign slogan.

Flushed cheeks

Remember the Lady Parts garage Jon C found in Palo Alto?

Well, just a few blocks away in Menlo Park he also found this showroom.

Most guys don't even talk about their pipes and ballcocks, never mind put them on display.

Hallelujah

As BBC Radio York pointed out on its Facebook page, on this occasion it would seem highly appropriate to ask, 'Would you like another T, Vicar?'

Say cheese

With the help of a cheery song for a holiday Monday.

Fudging it

To avoid the wrath of the several Welsh ladies I know, I'm throwing the blame for this one directly on to Greg L who sent it in.

Anything goes

Please do not place anything on this Freezer.

Not even a warning sign.

Low fat diet

It's reassuring to know that no greedy people were harmed in the making of this sandwich.

Schrödinger's car park

Where you must simultaneously exist and not exist.

Or, as Descartes would have it: I park, therefore I am.

Which translates roughly into the Latin: Cargito, ergo sum.

Making the head lines

Nice guy, that Gregg Wallace.

You could never imagine him as a dickhead.

Or could you?

Small-minded

You should always check the small print. Even if it's invisible to the naked eye.

Here's a poster on a BART platform that Jon C came across.

The usual 'terms and conditions apply' disclaimer is at the bottom right. However, it's so small we've had to enlarge it for you.

But, if you think that's small, check out the asterisk next to it, and then try and find the text to which the asterisk refers.

Here's a clue. Even at the full poster size you'd need a magnifier.

Hedging their lets

Jon C continues his TorontoTypoTour.

Presumably the Ever Green Room.

Shipwreck

Anyone from either Leeds or Liverpool will love this.

An alleged typo in the sat nav software of a Nissan Leaf car has replaced the p with a t in the name of the Manchester Ship Canal.

Nissan may describe it as such but, coming from Leeds, I couldn't possibly comment.

Get a loald of this

Elf Odin (@ElfOdin) suggests that whoever put up the sign must have been just as loalded as the New Dare Devil Grilers.

I feel like I'm speaking in tongues.

Tes_______co

Have you seen what those caring people at Loughborough Tesco have done?

Luckily Tom L took several photos so we can appreciate exactly what's happened.

Liquid lunch

It doesn't say what type of establishment is being visited.

Presumably it's a hospital where you'd think they'd be able to bring about a coma.

Sorry. A comma.

At least Waldemar Łysiak should feel justified.

Moving picture

Emlyn J came across this sign posted in the toilet at the Cardiff branch of Debenhams.
