Funny Examples...

Broken: (Just for fun) Rest area sign

Joseph Fuoco submits a picture taken in El Paso, Texas: I saw this sign at a rest stop in El Paso that said "Award winning rest area" and underneath it, a sign that said "Beware of Rattlesnakes."




Broken: KFC "Bowls"

KFCBen Thoma points out:
I received this direct mail piece from KFC. I don't think that KFC can claim that these bowls are both "New" and "Famous."
Don't new things need some time to become famous?
