Long Haired Freaky People Need Not Apply by Lank

May 24th, 2007 1:07 AM / Location: 34.118442,-118.3003

INSTRUCTIONS: Document a confusing, unsettling, or contradictory officially-placed
sign. Explain why it might have this effect.

This should help prepare you to think outside the box...

If you go up to the Griffith Park Observatory (it's a good hike), you may have a difficult time determining how to get in. One of the front doors has this signage:

- smaller

ENTRANCE / NOT AN ENTRANCE

ENTRANCE / NOT AN ENTRANCE

I don't think I need to explain why this is confusing and contradictory. Sorry the pic is so dark - it was taken at night sans flash.

I'm fairly certain that this is the most ideal completion for this task I've seen yet. Its contradiction is the most blatant, in any case. Excellent find!

This sign appears behind the counter of the Taco Bell near my workplace. It reads:

Managers and employers,
Nobody can not go to the bathroom after we close the doors. And we can not take the trash when we are living. Also after is close we can not open the back door.
