Attention, Rat Bastards: No Bad Language.

As I’m a fan of bizarre street and safety signs as much as anyone, I wanted to post the following public notice from the conservative enclave of Virginia Beach, VA.

Translation: No swearing on the boardwalk.

Despite the ridiculousness of this little bylaw, I have to give the sign’s designer mixed credit: although its message is cleverly “phrased,” the sign strikes me as something straight out of Toontown - which actually is a pretty apt way to describe Virginia Beach , home of CBN and Pat Robertson.
