Officials in a British town took to social media to make light of a newly-painted road that features a small spelling error in very large letters: "NO ENRY."
The road outside of a parking garage in the city center of Maldon, England, was supposed to be painted to read "NO ENTRY," but residents quickly realized the message was missing the letter "T."
"If you're having a bad day... just know that someone else is having a worse day than you," the Maldon District Council said in a Facebook post.
The council said the error will soon be corrected.
"We're on'T To iT," the council joked.

T reminds them of Trump, so they canceled it.

I was thinking Enry the Eighth, as sung by Erman’s Ermits.

I saw a legitimate-looking street sign once that said “entrance only, do not enter.” Always thought it must have been some kind of joke. At least I hope it was

#11. Re “Entrance only, do not enter” sign. It’s the “Common Core” English of today.
Based on the Marxist concepts in Orwell’s books “Animal Farm” and esp. “1984”, War is peace and peace is war”.
