The Useless Critic 2.0

I came across this sign on the restroom door of Kohl’s the other day.    Take a moment to really absorb what you are seeing.   "hi, no unpurchased merchandise in the restroom, please. thanks!" I have had signs like this made before for various employers. You type in a box EXACTLY what you would like your sign to say EXACTLY as you would like it to appear on said sign. It is that  easy.

Metric's newest album, Synthetica , will be out to the world on June 12, 2012. this is a big deal. look at that date. again:  this is a big deal. it's been 3 YEARS since the last album, Fantasies .
