Geno's steak shop in Philly

[Sundae]

I don't like the sign because it implies the reader is stupid. As in, "You have to be reminded which country you're in you dumb fuck!" And also because it sounds as if the place has its own special code that born and bred Americans from out of state would have trouble with anyway.

It would be like me answering the phone and saying, "Good afternoon EEA, I'm THE RECEPTIONIST so no I can't "help you anyway" if the person you're asking for is busy." But I don't. Because I like this job and I like the people who call up because they make it necessary for the nice people here to pay my wages.

Okay, I don't like the dumb fucks. But I'm not rude.

It also implies hate of American allies such as French, Turks, Egyptians and Japanese. Ironic, in cities that are most productive and growing, numerous languages are spoken in the streets. No wonder NYC grows and Philly does not. No wonder San Jose grows and Philly does not.

Sign only implies the shop owner is stupid. And since so many Philadelphians don't speak out, well, what does that say about a city formally known for Brotherly Love?

Anyone planning on visiting America? Visit NYC, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, or Washington DC. Avoid Philadelphia where hate of American allies is openly encouraged.

Taken together with the corpus of tw's other posts, tw's eagerness to impute "hate" is perhaps instructive as to tw's usual state of mind. Definitely no one to take advice on the Dear Abby topics from. Automotive systems, maybe, but anything human? -- only at your own peril.
