“Fight Against Stupidity And Bureaucracy”
.
It occurred to me during this short series of warning signs that the whole idea may have a fatal flaw.
Why all the fuss about printing warning signs on things for really stupid people, because the chances are that the people who need signs like these are far too stupid to know how to read them anyway?
But they have been written, and not by geniuses either, so we might as well have a look, and, of course….
Enjoy.
