Musuem Of The Handwritten Sign

by , (3 comments)


Apparently this guy (I think a dude did this site — my sincerest apologies if it turns out to be a dudette author) really loves handwritten signs. Me, I get a kick out one at least bi-monthly. ‘Course, that could be ‘cos of the handwritten kick me sign on my back. What?

I digress. Anyhoo, some people have such super handwriting, its simply stunning. And then there’s me…

The real question is, does this “Museum Of Handwritten Signs” really exist? The little alien guy in my stomach says no, and he’s usually right. So I’m saying no. Doesn’t mean the online museum can’t help us to murder some minutes in the middle of the afternoon!!

Some signs have been awesomed. Some have stellarly bad kerning. Others have enough issues with leading that they need to go see Dr. Seaver (the dad on Growing Pains — you’ll recall, he’s a psychiatrist). And some have a combo meal of all three.

Here’s one final question: how many words in that last paragraph don’t actually exist? I could change ‘em but where’s the fun in that? Game on.

Museum Main Still More On Location! Still More Yet Oh My Stop It Even Worse

Sarita,

I thought I was your favorite writer. I’m heart broken. Tom is always stealing my thunder.

I can’t believe you think the museum is terrible. It is awesome.

Tom said:

That’s why they call me Thunder Tom. You best watch out, I’ll steal your lightning too.

I’m only getting started, Sarita, so keep checking the site — i gots hundreds of articles floating John Glenn style in the space of my brain. Once I reel em in, watch out!
