WTF Week 2: Sh*t E



Maybe it’s not nice to pick on Earth Day. After all, it’s a fine and decent day. But since when do we need to flash a gang sign to show we’re “committed to preserving and protecting our Earth’s precious resources”?

Maybe I’m just not as cool as Deepak Chopra. Fine. I can live with that. But at least I get that if “showing the E” is supposed to catch on, then maybe the drawing of the hand signal should match the actual hand signal. Otherwise you’re just hailing a taxi with 3 fingers.

  1. But that awesomely awesome Entourage guy does it. It must be cool. Honestly, I get snobbishly annoyed at ads like this remaining in the subway when the date has already passed. That shit is from April! I think there should be an unwritten rule that old ads can be replaced by artists' work. And by that, I mean let's all just remove this crap and replace it with Dr. Zizmor posters!

  2. It looks more like you're telling the batter to hit to third base or something.

  3. I read "I Am Lame" that I reads l. I thought you designed it!

  4. I agree that the i reads as an l. Also, I guess the drawing of the hand signal would be what it looks like to you when you're doing it, but the photos show what it looks like when you're watching someone else do it?
