…the proprietors of this Toronto bar will leave you pondering some different questions instead.
Meanwhile, as Will observed, a Shell station in Austin apparently abides by a similar “honesty is the best” policy.
…as does a shopping center in Tyler, Texas, where Erin spotted this explanation (on a 100-degree July day).
Similar venting was on display at a store in Ironton, Ohio. (“For the record, I cannot validate whether or not the ‘oner’ was an in fact an asshole,” says submitter Meagan.)
And smetimes, of course, brutal honesty isn’t enough.

So really, why bother with an explanation at all?

Next to last sign: Are they close to opening, or are they locked in there having sex?

It’s my “temperment” to have a “habbit” to close my store today (just like I do every day).
There’s a freaking Walmart ad that expands and covers the comment box every time the pointer gets near it.

I misread the first one as GangBang bar. The first two thoughts through my head were:
1. What the hell sort of name is that?
2. Do they really CARE if the girls are having bad days?

Donna Martin Graduates!
Tonya and her habbit would not be welcome at the taco place.

Perhaps they could make do with the short staff if they just put the taco meat on a lower shelf?

If Moses had carried a short staff, the Israelites would have had to swim for it.

That is so weird . . . I refer to my marriage as the BangBang Bar. It used to be open, too.

Looks like someone didn’t much like anal sex.
They are now closed forever to asshole boners.

I’m still wondering why “Sorry” decided not to take credit for that sign.
Maybe he was too close to the situation to be impartial.

I’m 5’1″. I suppose I should be glad I won’t be asked to make tacos.

So this Toronto Retro Martini Bar on Bloor street has Karaoke with twin wireless mikes…is this the “Bang bang”? Do they let you bring Thai food in from next door? Is it still a cougar bar? So many questions… Paging Glen Bang.

Maybe the sign in Ironton Ohio originally read Asshole Boner which led to a boycott. Nobody in Ohio want to buy stuff from some homo!

People, stop joking around, okay?
It reads “Tonya’s drug RABBIT”
Ever had to deal with a lepus hopped up on speed? That shit can close down an entire block.

Oh those tattoo artists are such hardcore rebels, with their “Fuck off” sign and their pastel pink building.

cop reading note: “officer, there are two armed men inside.”
his partner: “I sure hope so, a one-armed man ain’t gonna be able to make a taco.”

It’s the note with “Sorry” that is then crossed out, that made me shriek and frighten someone in the next room. Like, “No I’ve thought about it and I’m not sorry and why should I pander to you anyway?”
