Filler
I was at the mall the other day and I saw this sign. I think I was the only person in the mall that found it funny, and I can’t decide if it is funny that the sign’s composer made a grammatical error or sad that no one seems to mind.

I suppose many people are wearing their pants 40% off these days anyways.

I hope to write up a quick post tonight before I REALLY go on vacation. Oy!

I’m not a grammar nazi but it does bother me how misspellings are so common and no one seems to care at all.
Hahaha, you’re not the only person who finds these signs highly amusing.
I like the signs at the grocery store. “15 items or less” Really it should be “15 items or fewer”
LOL! I thought the sign was funny along with the picture you provided.
So since I am not very good with spelling — where is the misspelled word? Is it in the fine print I can’t read? Pants is spelled right. Along with all, the, Limited, and off.
@kamrandolph - There isn’t any misspelled word, just bad grammar is all!
Hahaha. Too true.
Nice catch. Most people are oblivious to these things. At a traffic light near my house there has been a sign that states “LEFT TURN YEILD ON GREEN” for over two years and I think I’m the only one who knows, because it’s still there… *facepalm*
@carolinavenger - oh that sucks.
Ha ha ha!
I DO NOT SEE THE ERROR in the sign. I “see” the error in wearing one’s trousers below one’s hips, metaphorically “see” because it is a mental error, and perhaps a spiritual one as well.
