Dear Lord. That is a lot of nouns.
Issued by the “Department of Redundancy Department”.
I would love to know where that’s actually posted.

Reminds me of
CAUTION: THIS SIGN HAS SHARP EDGES
The comittee that concocted this were probably worried they might get sued for not having a sign saying that they were testing signs.
Anyone else feeling stimulated?
Sign o’ the times…
Photoshop would be my guess.
I’ve seen that sign in the wild. Brought to you by the Washington, DC government. Before you think it’s incompetence, bear in mind that someone’s cousin made $1000 for putting up that sign. Once you realize that everyone has a cousin, you will understand DC city government.
Hello.
Is this the Department of Redundancy Department?
70 Chevelle SS454 : Before you think it’s incompetence, bear in mind that someone’s cousin made $1000 for putting up that sign. Once you realize that everyone has a cousin, you will understand DC city government.
Actually, that’s not limited to DC city government…it applies to all government.
I love Google. First, I discover that this was part of a project from 2004 to consolidate the information on three separate signs onto one sign.
It didn’t work out too well and so the one-sign-fits-all didn’t replace the separate signs throughout the rest of the district.
Second, the sign is not a PhotoShop. This Google Street View clearly shows the above-pictured sign at 1983 New Hampshire Ave NW, Washington, DC, United States.
Third, though the project may not have been successful, at least the DDOT experimented first instead of having tens of thousands of bad signs made. Not everything the government does is incompetent.
Why is the sign still up? Who knows. Maybe they’re still planning better signs . . .

========================
Oooh, ooh, Mister Cotter, I know, I know! (excitedly waiving hands in the air)
The sign is still up because of … government incompetence? Did I win, did I win?
