I never knew there was such a thing as antiques store humor. And God help me, I wish I'd never found out.
Not really. I enjoy a good joke as much as anyone.
The other day a customer came into ye olde antiques mall and told me he had purchased a sign many moons ago, similar to the one pictured below, in the store I work in.
I wondered where this was going.
The customer, an older man, proclaimed,"The first one of my daughters that gets pregnant, I'm going to post my sign on her lawn: SEEDED, PLEASE KEEP OFF."
I chuckled, then replied, "Oh, dad!"
He admitted his girls might have reason to say "oh dad" but I could tell he was going to do it anyway.
Hmm, I was thinking his proposed public use of his antique "seeded" sign might be one of the most ingenious methods of birth control devised.
