This is actually written the correct way, horizontally and does not fit here.

It wouldn't fit on "DontDeadOpenInside", but I think it fits here, no?

In a "NoSafetySmokingFirst", the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.

I personally see no need to draw the distinction between the two, I mean I know that subcultures are fractal and there's no bottom but I'm okay with one community for text usually signs that isn't clear how it's supposed to be read at first glance.

How dare you imply such a thing! The two formats are nothing alike! ;)

Welcome to NoSafetySmokingFirst!

For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.

This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.
