Revised: Retail Space School of Efficient Design
”The Incontinent” in this case is a drunken 36 year old man named “Hugh Dunn.” Not officially an employee of Meijers department store, Hugh nonetheless is available for a modest price if you are willing to buy any one of the many toothbrushes he’s fouled this afternoon.

cute!
think of this, as you are changing your babies diapers, someday the position might be reversed.
That looks photoshopped to me, I’m sorry to say…
I swear I took it myself with my cell phone camera at the Meijer Thrifty Acres on Hall Road and Hayes Road in Shelby Township!
Now if only the red arrow pointed straight down…
Brilliant!
l>t:Hmmm… but hopefully there’ll be no toothbrushing involved.
Rich:No, there was a display of shampoo or something immediately below the sign.
In their defense, the store is in the midst of a remodelling.
foot:You know, the most insulting thing about that insinuation is that you are implying the best joke I could come up with is “incontinent”.
I mean, I could’ve used
“Hell Portal”
“Vaginal Mouth Rott”
“Rope Piercings”
“Very Small Inedible Tacks”
“Oral Warming Cream”
“What You Were Really Looking For, No Really”
On the other hand, I’m a bit flattered that you think I’d be able to use photoshop so skillfully.
“Very Small Inedible Tacks” ahahahahahaaaaaa
HA!! as you said: “BARRRF!”
Meijer Thrifty Acres? Is that near Saint Alphonso’s Pancake Breakfast? Where I stole the margarine?
Never in the field of human supermarket retail science has anyone put up a sign saying incontinent. Not even in America. I’m with Foot Eater.
Listen, I’m flattered anyone thinks I have the skill with photoshop to do such an thing, but I am really insulted that you would think I’d make THIS lame a joke!
Even I wouldn’t use the word “Incontinent” in this context. “Incontinence Supplies” or “Adult Undergarments” or “Tea Towel,” but not “Incontinence.”
Shit. Heather was with me, as was our unintelligible offspring, Riley. Upon seeing this sign I turned to Heather and said, “I have to take a picture of this” and I did.
I’ll go back and take some pictures from different angles if you like, but you’ll owe me gas moneys.
As for Meijer’s: Click Here.
Its a regional chain which is in competition with Walmart. We like to shop there because they have both groceries and a department store.
They are in the middle of remodelling, which is the only explanation I have for a sign like that.
I’ll hold out for the buy 2 get 1 free sale…
your revision, funny
Hey I believe you. not everyone can spell incotenience. special employee
Well, Dr Maroon’s not ‘with’ me in a carnal sense, I hasten to point out.
Oh, and I hadn’t realised you’d taken this photo, SafeT; I’d assumed it was one you found and were sharing with us. I believe you.
Stop fighting it Footy. You love it, you know you do.
Ticheru: If you ask nice, Hugh might be 1 for free.
l>t:Yeah, I was tired when I first posted it. That first joke was lame….
Foot:Oh, OK then.
Doc M:Can I join your sleepover? I’m MURDER in a pillow fight.
You sure that sign wasn’t from a store in Japan? They love mangling English here… http://www.engrish.com
Nope. I took it me own self at a local Meijers.
Just because its your primary language doesn’t necessarily make you profficient in its use.
(BTW:I LOVE the Engrish site!)
