There's probably a whole new line of inquiry here. The eponymous beware of the bull gag.

take no chances

2009-08-28T10:20:00.000-07:00

do it yourself because it has to be done, this looks like a chain reaction to me though.

i before e

2009-07-28T14:39:00.000-07:00

everyday, well almost I catch this beauty.

a little bit of cut and paste

2009-05-29T08:39:00.001-07:00

waiting around in the park for my son I happened upon these fast food feats of foundry wisdom

good use of colour

2009-05-22T12:46:00.000-07:00

I think this comes under the 'adding interest to a page' category in most idiot's guides to typography - in the harsh sunshine I could only pick out 5 letters

can you use 9-slice scaling on that exit sign

2009-05-18T07:32:00.000-07:00

and don't forget to italicise the 'T'

chicken's yellow, meat's brown, ball's white

2009-05-03T10:55:00.000-07:00

ah, what delights in the urbane sign, this mighty demonstration of depth of field is one which populates many a sign artists attempt to create mastery of illusion up and down our fair isle. I would however recommend the chicken kebab from the Charcoal Grill SE23, the chicken's only yellow if you opt for the special sauce...

hanging's too good for them

2009-04-25T10:28:00.000-07:00

2 crimes against typography that beat me in the face on a casual morning shop to obtain some fish for our evening meal. i will find the perpetrators of these decorous crimes, lock them in a room with a copy of the universal penman and have them copy each page 100 times so they understand that a cursory historical nod is not enough!!!!

don't forget your glasses

loving the O again the strand - coming back from the lyceum with a 7 and a 5 year old, amazing what you can catch with a 1.3 mp camera phone - and check out the car, if anyone reads this and knows what it is please let in.

do the strand love

2009-04-20T13:29:00.001-07:00

i think this is a chain, so not so rare, a restaurant along the strand in my home town, a little way near Somerset House - which is just gorgeous as well, can't beat a good block capital - reminds me of Chris Ware

Oi!

2009-04-15T09:18:00.001-07:00

I love this, so perfect it looks like a photoshop job, it reads a little skewy (no 24hr access?) - it does however have no traction with meaning to anyone who dares disobey it's intent

the good thing is we have too many fonts...

2009-04-13T12:27:00.000-07:00

...the bad thing is we have too many fonts.

2 Colour print job - chisel edge pen

2009-04-12T22:38:00.000-07:00

oh the delights and convenience of a chisel edge marker pen, the square 'A' and the majestic deco '3', italicising the tenner is a masterstroke. Look carefully on the still and you'll see the same formatting applies in colourway at least to the denim ultra wool - this was a 2 colour job and some smart alec threw in a special!

we're on a road to nowhere

2009-04-11T09:11:00.000-07:00

let's do the bubble writing you know - the one with a gradient fill - orange.orange.orange

so we want something to say this is where the trolleys go

2009-04-11T09:08:00.000-07:00

...and keep it simple, it's gotta be printed one colour on metal.

crazy hands

2009-04-11T09:06:00.000-07:00

As I was told to eat carrots - 'have you ever seen a rabbit wearing glasses' - check out the white gloves on this giraffe.

somethings are too good or fun, this kinda fits on the blog as I like any kind of iconoclasm

2009-04-06T13:48:00.000-07:00

no bikes

2009-04-06T11:57:00.001-07:00

as my daughter pointed out - this was not read by several wheeled guests to the park - lovely letters though

MAKE IT BOLD - WE WANNA SEEIT - WE GET COMMISSION

2009-04-06T11:53:00.000-07:00

yes, this is just plain ugly - does the job though - can't argue with that - one of those that probably charges 1.85 for withdrawals - why?

london bridge is falling down

2009-04-06T11:48:00.000-07:00

this took me unawares - and took me the wrong way - I now do the route just twice a week

lost but not forgotten

2009-04-06T11:39:00.000-07:00

a heartfelt plea commonly seen on every side street - a quick trip to Staples or some office stationery filched from the office to rescue a pet, bubble writing for the bold approach - saw this again recently - it had all but faded
