A traffic sign near a preschool has some drivers asking questions.
As a driver isn't it our job to obey all posted street signs, but how do you do that with this one, privately posted in front of a preschool, "please slow drively?" It has caused some perplexed reactions.
"It looks like they might have done it on purpose. Is it funny? Yes, it's funny," one man said.
"With people these days, I'm pretty sure it was done on purpose," a woman said.

Based on my experience with the school system it could have been a mistake.
Regardless, will it help children learn proper English? I believe (hope) that is one of the school’s goals.
I am a word game addict, but I don’t think this is amusing in front of a school.

“X-NG” could be a euphemism for a popular expletive which describes my feelings about school. Or shcool.

You’ve misinterpreted that street sign of yours. That was done by a passing road crew who found an innovative way to alert the street sign “editors” that the spelling of school was “X” “NG” (read: Wrong, No Good). The crew seeing this would immediately realize the need to correct the offending signage, consult the official street sign dictionary, and make the necessary correction.
Sheesh...

I blew the whistle when some “public servants” installed all four signs at a four-way Stop BACKWARDS (i.e. you were looking at bare galvanized metal from all directions).
Prime evidence of union guys with their skivvies in a twist over something. Had to be deliberate cause even THEY aren’t that stupid.
