The character looks like Ristar from that old SEGA Genesis game.

If I were sign-making dude, I would just put a wireless camera in the fridge and hand a bill to whoever’s been eating my food. It’s much more effective than a piddly note.

However, I completely empathize with people who get their food stolen. (Only three more weeks of entitled food-stealing, tampon-using, razor-breaking, smoking-in-the-apartment-when-there’s-a-sign-on-the-building-that-says-not-to roomates!)

I don’t want to hear excuses. Lunchtime is always noon. You have 45 minutes to get to your food because at quarter to one it’s free grazing time. I don’t care what your work schedule is.

Some would disagree with you, UHG. Language has changed somewhat, and many of the grammar books I refer to accept the use of ‘their’ in a sentence that has traditionally required a singular pronoun. Officially (if a grammar book can be seen as official) not everyone sees that ‘he/his/him’ should be the default position.

The same books also accept the use of ‘was’ with the conditional (if clauses).

Not that it means much, but here is one that is widely referred to.

Because in the English language, when one is in doubt of a gender one should ALWAYS use male pronouns. For example “It looks like someone lost his keys!” … saying “their keys” is actually incorrect.

I love the middle picture here. Siskel and Ebert agree–taking food or drinks that don’t belong to you gets you two thumbs down!
