Friday Follies #3 — Adulthood

A blogging buddy of mine over at Proscenium has started this thing called “Friday Follies.” He’s looking for “any kind of sign, flyer, ad, etc., that you may see posted or printed or whatever/wherever; that would, might or might not be, intentional or unintentionally, a mistake, or could be interpreted the wrong way, misspelled, be a double entendre, or just outright hilarious.”

I don’t know if the picture of the sign I’m posting here meets any of the noted criteria, but I found it quite witty. I probably won’t win the weekly Friday Follies prize, but oh well.1583368B-A083-4877-81EF-76D873821870This sign sits right outside of a coffee shop that I pass every morning while walking my dog. And not that I’m clumsy or anything, but I have, I admit, occasionally screwed up step 2 of the Adulthood 101 instructions.

    It’s why we wear dark shirts, multi-colours, and white belongs to the work-day, yes?

    LOVE IT! Coffee shop signs are a frequent source of entertainment and inspiration for me and that’s a great one. Let’s see if I can remember the instructions. 😉

    I too sometimes fail step 2 of adulthood 101 – I blame the stupid sipping-lip on the stupid disposable cup lid for not fitting my mouth adequately and causing several drips (or worse) to land randomly on my clothing beneath – and sometimes even down my cleavage… I guess takeaway coffee and big boobs just don’t mix… 😦

      Well, I don’t have that same cleavage problem, but I can appreciate those who do! 😱

    I really don’t think there is any criteria, well except that, people should be able to read/see it.
    This sign hit too close to home as I was drinking coffee when I read this! 😂

    In my book everyone gets a prize! It’s the pride not prize that matters 😛😂 Thank you so much for the support and sharing. That does mean a lot!

    Who hasn’t? I do it so often that if I don’t, I am surprised at myself.

    I’m pretty good with coffee, but food seems to find its way to my clothes too often. I guess I need to read the manual. LOL
