virge Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Made you look! Hilarious - and VERY rude - images show what happens when bad font choices end in disaster Images from around the web capture the most unfortunate font fails They include signs which appear to advertise 'key lime farts' and 'light-up balls' One font spacing fail appeared to read 'penis broken - use finger instead' Choosing the perfect font ensures a sign stands out while being easy for customers to read. But, as these images show, your choice of font can result in disaster when the elaborate typeface is so difficult to decipher, it appears to spell something else altogether. From a box of 'key lime farts' to 'light-up balls', these images prove that signs gone wrong can be unintentionally rude, offensive - and occasionally hilarious. From messily-scrawled handwritten signs to disastrous tattoos, the snaps, shared in an online gallery, are guaranteed to make you look twice. The importance of spacing: A broken pen on a card reader led to this unintentionally rude notice at a shop counter, and one amused customer couldn't help but share it online See all images from link below..

Hilarious - and VERY rude - images show what happens when bad font choices end in disaster My mind must be clean because I didn't see what they were talking about and even then it was a stretch to add lines where there obviously wasn't any so that the meaning would change to the one they wanted you to see. Actually it was kind of stupid for the most part. The best signs I ever saw was in a mini mall on the way to work that I always said I was going to stop and take a picture of and never did. It was two large poles with the signs for the businesses placed in-between. The top sign was Temporary Manpower and the one immediately below it read Planned Parenthood.
