Hilarious German Lavatory Sign
I always know that the Hall of Technical Documentation Weirdness has been cited by some sizable site (work safe? I’m unsure), because I get a little burst of new submissions. The best and weirdest one follows. It was apparently taken in the washroom of a Berlin guesthouse:

That’s so German, isn’t it? And I can just hear the sign designer working on this badboy (say it with a bad German accent):
OTTO: Hans, how big should I make the bratwurst?
HANS: Ya, we don’t want to intimidate anyone with an enormes drittes Bein!
OTTO: But people might think it was my kleines Mannfleisch!
etc…
Huh. That was less funny than I hoped. Ah well, apologies to my German readers. Ich liebe Sie noch.

I’d love to get my hands on a larger version of that pic for a post I recently wrote on just that subject! Any chance?

It’s not my photo, but I’ll send you the guy’s email address and you can ask him.

That looks like something my ex would have liked to hang up in the bathroom.
