These fucking foreign trash should really learn english before coming here.

[-] Rachelhazideas@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago

Smh can't even spell gellapinnose right.

[-] sol6_vi@lmmy.retrowaifu.io 3 points 17 hours ago

I brought my family to visit my mom a few months ago and we saw one of her shopping lists scribbled on an envelope. Yikes.

I now ask my wife if we have Ibeuprofan and Tielanal.

[-] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Ah you're talking about the I.B. profin. Easy mistake to make

[-] sol6_vi@lmmy.retrowaifu.io 1 points 6 hours ago

Right right, brilliant thanks. Always messing that up.

[-] JayBeeTX@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago

Reading the comments shows a lot of people do not understand satire, especially when the opportunity to talk trash about America/Texas/American education is on the line.

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Poe's law. Maybe it's satire. Equally possible it's ignorance.

The AVERAGE reading level in the US is seventh grade. We're at the point where they might as well retranslate the Bible back to Latin because people can't barely read it.

I know the exact spot this is from years ago. Its just north of a little town called Lindale (North of Tyler, south of Mineola).

Dudes hallopinos were actually pretty legit. He also had the sign misspelled so poorly because it "gets people's attention and makes em laugh".

Yeah, I was going to take a guess. As someone who has dealt with random farmers in the middle of nowhere, at least one of the two are going to be true:

  1. That will be the best produce you have ever laid eyes on.
  2. The person misspelled things on purpose, to grab peoples’ attention.
  3. You’ll be able to fill an entire grocery bag with produce, for like $3.

There are a lot of places like this, where you’ll get some really high quality stuff for basically no money. As long as you’re friendly, they’ll usually give you some crazy good deals.

The best tamales you’ll ever taste? They come out of the back of a beat-up minivan in a hardware store parking lot, at the crack of dawn. Just cruise through a Home Depot lot as the sun is rising, and look for the car surrounded by people. Bring cash in small bills.

*lists three items*

I see what you did there. But I'll still judge you for it...

[-] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Glad it at least made someone twitch. I got a good chuckle as I was typing it out.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

dude's marketing worked on me. you can't misspeel that badly unintentionallly

[-] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I was gonna say, you'd have to work hard to misspell this hard. Twas not accidental. 10/10 marketing!

[-] Nebula@fedia.io 32 points 1 day ago

"literally no words"

look inside

words

cat

[-] Nelots@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 day ago

Letters, maybe. Words? That's debatable.

I'm not sure if this is the guy I'm thinking of, but at least one roadside vegetable seller does this sort of thing deliberately. After all, a sign with such... unique spelling is much more attention grabbing than a simple list of vegetables.

[-] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 46 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

A lot of them do, especially the secretly commercial stands that are getting all too common. Like the cat says, "you are not immune to ~~propaganda~~ advertising".

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The consultant and artist who conceived and realized that sign both went to Yale. The company who holds a regulatory-captured monopoly on all Texas roadside produce stands paid their agency $6.5M for this design.

And just because I made this up, doesn't mean it's not true.

[-] bryndos@fedia.io 17 points 1 day ago

I think you mean they went to Y'aIl.

People do it online all the time. Back in reddit days (pre-fediverse), I never saw a front page post without some grammatical or spelling mishap.

Fear not the man who has spelt 10000 words right but the man who sold their education to grow hallopinyos.

Zucchini

Potatoes + Tomatoes

Jalapenos

Bell Pepper

Tried too hard. Anyone who's illiterate with that much phonetic knowledge would've gone for peper at least.
