#396 ... NO NO NO

The sign in the centre of this montage is like it is having one of those conscience conversations with you ... a delightful classic ... this is in the alleyway leading to Blair Wright panelbeaters in Johnsonville .. and as for "strictly no" ? ... does that mean all the others are sort of like 'soft' or 'pretend' !!!

Pretty clear that no means no :)

Mandy said...

Some men think women mean yes when they say no so I think the same attitude exists among parkers.

Eki said...

signs do tell a lot about a society ... how do i participate in this? Thanks.

Marie-Noyale said...

Great post!

Harry Makertia said...

What I like most is "no human" sign! Great work!

Kim said...

Jeremy, that is a very artful montage! I love how you put it together (and how were you able to include the one longer shot. . .must be a program I've not seen yet). I had a good laugh at these. Good going for our theme!

Hi ,

The bees are back in Brookville, Ohio. I hope for the rest of the year at least. I even got one on my Better Blog Writing post today. LOL

I see you found an adorable No sign for our July Theme Day. Looks like you found them all.

Isn't it almost funny to think of adult people scurrying around their communities taking pictures of signs. And if somebody had asked what that is all about and you said a sign with "no" on it, they might... well. It is kind of funny.

indeed, reads like a conversation. A bit of negative one :) but well done!

Janet Kincaid said...

Strictly No! as opposed to just no? What part of no don't we get? Excellent collection of pictures!

Happy Theme Day!

Nancy said...

What a wonderful display of a simply word:)

Benjamin Madison said...

When I was a more unfriendly administrator I used to have a sign on my office wall that read, "What part of NO do you not understand?"

Tash said...

Oh, noooooooo! So many "NO"s! Makes you think if you can do anything. Good post.
