Happy Camper

Home today from a week camping on the far south coast. Bracing but fun. I’ll put up a proper post later, but wanted to share the joy this sign brought my pedant’s heart:

I assume you nicked it to stick on your own toilet door.

I hope they offered a criteria against which a toilet could be measured to assist in defining “flush correctly”.

That was the secret catch, Boysenberry! I had to try to flush it, just to see.
It looked pretty correct to me, but that doesn’t take away from the excellence of the sign.

I love you Zoe but,
1. people whose employment embraces public toilet signage, do not, as a rule, have a background in classic literature, or even Year 12 English Expression.
2. maybe they did it specifically to bring you joy during your holiday?

Maybe they did, Brownie! Someone has to love the pedants.
I wanted to make the point that being a pedant isn’t just about being a critical whinger, but valuing clarity of expression.

Wow, it beats the one at my workplace which is really badly composed…(but I can’t actually remember the text offhand)

C’mon Zoe what is your problem?
The toilet does not flush and is correct in not flushing.

Bless, rog, is that you don’t read proper or can’t understand right?
The toilet flushed in a thoroughly satisfactory fashion.

I didn’t know that toilets hunted game birds! The American V.P. does but he caused someone to lose face.
His name is ‘Chainy’, I think. Don’t get in his road or he’ll ‘bowl’ you over.
Cheers!

so does that make the “‘” a catastrophe?
