For the life of us, we simply do not “get” useless signs of satire like the ones pictured below.

Especially when said useless signs are in the middle of a crossroad of a very confusing attraction that doesn’t actually have signs stating where specific areas are.

This is the scene that happened to us:

“Where the heck is the rose garden? It’s right here on this map, but it’s not here in real life. Oh, let’s check out those signs. WTF?! Why would they put this junk up and not a sign for the rose garden?”

You know, cause it’s always great to know where London, England is when you’re on a tiny little island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and cannot find something that is hidden mere meters away from yourself.

America, The Land Of Irony

There is something very odd and ironic about seeing St. Vincent’s Hospital all closed down, with two former first responder vehicles parked outside and an American flag on the wall.

One would have logically thought that after being decommissioned these former emergency vehicles would have found new owners and parking spots just about anywhere else.

In any event: America, the land of opportunity (to shut down desperately needed and strategically placed emergency rooms)!

Bay Ridge Forest Fire Danger

While the once green plants in the many 5th Avenue B.I.D. planters in Bay Ridge appeared to be brown and dead long ago, they are now so dry that they are in obvious danger of becoming victim of a forest fire — one cigarette butt tossed in one will probably set it up in flames.

This is a shot of Bay Ridge Parkway, notice how all four corners have lovely kindling on them. It’s obvious that nobody wants the planters and it appears as though the 5th Ave. B.I.D. has abandoned them out on the sidewalk.

This makes us wonder the question: At what point in time will the City deem the dead plants and planters garbage and remove them by way of garbage truck?

Our guess is never…

Park Slope Literacy Fail

For shame! We spotted this sad sight on Brooklyn’s Union Street, just off of Grand Army Plaza.

There was only one thing that this sign wasn’t supposed to be on…yet there it is, being held by four ties on the fence.

One would think that the sign hanger(s) would have read the sign before hanging it up any old place – an old place that happens to be the one place that it was not intended to be on.
