Love and Boba

Sometimes a sign is friendly and pleasant.  Not warning about anything, not trying to sell anything, just conjure a good vibe.  One of the boba/tea places that we visit regularly has someone on staff who likes to chalk things on the blackboards around the shop.  One day, this is what greeted us:

A big thanks to the people who find a way to remain positive in this world.  It just felt good.

Yield Signs: Flow Chart Style?

  There are some yield signs around town whose appear to targeted at a very small audience: people who like to read flowcharts.  Sure, you can stand there and work out what they're trying to say, but I'm sure 99% of people who walk by just shrug and think "whatever".

But what's the deal with this?? $2.99.99 is not a real use of numbers. May 15 update: we saw a short documentary on the 99-cent stores going out of business, and I think it said that company invented the extra .99 bit during a few years of trying not to raise their prices to $1.

Lost Remote?

  Here's a fun sign.  Someone lost their remote control for some kind of "machine".  The sign was there for about 3 weeks before some major construction began, so I walked back over and got a picture of the sign surrounded by machinery.  I doubt that any of those trucks are remotely controlled, so the sign and the machines are probably unrelated.  There's just a lot happening on this corner. Yesterday, the sign was gone but judging from this new sign, the construction is going to continue for another month.  Note that June 31 is not a real date, so does that mean they don't have an actual completion date in mind?
