jaybyrd 3,770 Posted September 21, 2013 That sign may make me rethink the customer always being right. Based on the education system down here that could be a local sign to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ravenwind / One Off Grafx 187 Posted September 21, 2013 But on another note how many people would stop just to see if the people were that ill educated. I would stop knowing that they might at least be fresh and not filled with pesticide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted September 21, 2013 Thanks Carolyn, didn't have a clue - it didn't sound like it would be a good name for an illicit substance either so really was lost on that one 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slice&dice 2,450 Posted September 21, 2013 I don't see there is a problem here at all. Effective, eye-catching, bold, easily understood at a glance what they are offering, and memorable. They might have even gone out of their way to do it like that. Impressive. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joker 618 Posted September 21, 2013 Wildgoose now your talking. Boiled peanuts is where it's at. They have a company here called Papa John's Jumbo Peanuts. You can go to Sam's Club and get a 5 lb bag for about 6.50.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monkey 252 Posted September 21, 2013 Even living in the south I have never understood boiled peanuts. They turn my stomach just looking at them lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted September 21, 2013 Got to eat them hot or else I'll puke em up. "Bald" peanuts are a staple around here even though I try not to eat them more than once or twice a year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted September 22, 2013 What is funny is all the attention we're giving it here because you can see signs similar to that all over South Carolina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted September 22, 2013 On the voices topic, are they loud or just a whisper? Just looking for a comparison to see if the ones I've been hearing are normal. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
