My mother always told me those were a bad omen, especially at night.

@Wispy: I like the windmills. I think they're pretty.

Kind of passive-aggressive if you ask me, if I have anything to say to any particularly mean customers I just tell them.

That was cool. Better than a coal fire.

@Christopher: Windmills have had brakes for centuries. But this one probably had broken brakes. Likely the men what ran the windmill knew the brakes were broken and set up a camera to film the imminent asplosion. So they could post the film on YouTube.

So freaking annoying. As a graphic designer, and a man who just thinks about what he writes. Right up there with unnecessary quotation marks and that the deformed Ss and Ns that people write when they're drawing outlines of letters and aren't really thinking about what they're doing.

Hey, I've been to Stuff Mart. I liked Stuff Mart. They had some good stuff. The problem with lists like these is it's clear that a lot of these guys just got a sense of humor about themselves. It's like the South Lake Union Trolley here in Seattle. We knew it spelt Slut. We thought it was funny. We sold T-shirts. Then everybody took it seriously and the named got changed. I tell ya, I don't want to meet the man who takes public transportation seriously.

Man, did everyone have really neat script back then?
