Can Some Of Them Even Count To Fifty?
I’m a visitor on Big Island in Hawaii. I swing by a convenience store and find myself giggling at a sign on prominent display at the checkout, containing some bullet points:
Sign:
- Hawaii is a state in the United States, so you’re still in America.
- Yes, we accept US Dollars, because this is still America.
- Thank you for saying our English is good, because… still America.
- If you’re not from the USA, this sign does not apply to you.
Me: “Funny sign.”
Cashier: “It’s not meant to be funny. It’s a vital PSA.”
Me: “I’m so sorry to hear that.”
Cashier: “Jokes on me, I guess. Half of ’em can’t even read anyway…”
