No Detail Left Behind

Yet another disturbingly detailed sign in Québec.

I would like to know if this sign would be any less effective if the injured child's sock wasn't half off, or if there wasn't the dramatic pause created by the ellipsis before "le vôtre."

I think perhaps this sign suffers from too much detail. Imagine being the graphic designer working for the city of Montréal and getting your original design back with a note along the lines of: "While we liked how realistic your silhouette of a Great Dane looked, what we want is a steaming loaf of crap somewhere on the sign. Just so there's no confusion."

Signs, signs, everywhere signs

We've decided to create a new category for pictures of the crazy signs we keep seeing as we travel, largely inspired by this first sign that got us to giggling.

Tired of all those pretentious roadside motels? This is the place for you!


Well, only if it's unpretentious!
