TATTI !!!

Found somewhere in Tamil Nadu !! Wonder what everybody up north thinks about this ??

Toilet Under Repair!!

Found this A4 sheet taped to the washroom of a small office in Chikpet, Bangalore.



Interestingly, while I was busy clicking clearer images of the sign, somebody appeared from the left, unlocked the door, went inside, locked it from the inside, did "something" for about a minute, came back outside and put the lock on it again!!

Public Veheicals

Board outside BESCOM Office, Banashankari.



I wonder if the painter knew how the word "Vehicles" is pronounced!!

Left Hand Driving

Saw this while riding through town one day. Sort of irrelevant and hugely relevant at the same time, if you think about it.

Keyboard not found. Press F1 to continue

For those who thought that the above line is what legends are made of, I give you McDonalds at Forum, Koramangala, Bangalore:

Hair conditioning

Found this awesome feature on the latest model of a popular car:

Aspirations

This one morning, while driving home from work, I saw this huge yellow Volvo bus with this extremely intresting caption in the back window:

For those who don't see the humour, Reva is this really tiny two-seater Electric Car, which is somewhat common on Bangalore roads (though it hasn't really caught its fair market share).

On a social note, it would be really awesome if all buses were to aspire to and attain the emission levels (zero. zilch. nil) and the driving cost per km (Approx 40p per km) of the Reva. The world would definitely be a better place.

Then again, if the buses can aspire to and attain the power and speed (max of 65 kmph) levels of the Reva, they wouldn't be able to bully around on the roads that much. :)

If buses were to aspire to and attain the seating capacity of the Reva (2 adults + 2 children), then we would have serious mass-transportation problems.

So, are these aspirations good or bad?

Guanine buyers only!

Of late, most of the stuff we're putting up here is becoming similar to Engrish, (which by the way is one of our old favourites. ;) )

However this bit of art is refreshingly educated and scientific:


Transcribed below if you're having trouble reading this:

YOU WANT RENT OR
LEASE HOUSE in
J. P. Nagar Just Dail
Contact: Manjunath
<phone number removed>
Contact Guanine Buyers only

Interesting tidbits:

1. Here's what wikipedia says about Guanine
2. Considering the dude is offering house for rent or lease, why is he looking for buyers?
3. Never mind the Dail
   

A car you wouldn't want to mess with...

Sticker????

Cycle Pushing

Seen on Brigade road

Tecnically Liqvid

Clock Room

See bottom-right of image for what this really is!

Hot Dtinks

How did a spelling mistake as obvious as this make it multiple times on the PVR menu at Forum, Bangalore?
Presumably a mistake by someone on a QWERTY keyboard.


What if they had made more mistakes?
It would STINK!

Prohibited signs

Spotted at the bottom of the Shravanbelagola hill:


And at the top of the hill, on a platform near the monolithic statue:


Its incredible how prohibited can change spelling in a separation of some 700-odd steps :)

a bumper sticker DJ would love to have!

The Horizontal People Transporter

An elevator in the apartment that I stay in:

To put things in perspective, a close up:

Now I know the way to my neighbor's house :)

This way please

Sighted on the way back from Nandi Hills.

In all fairness to the painter, he has included an ellipsis to indicate that he ran out of space, but then again, I'm not so sure of that!

Aer Nose Throat Clinic

After all, its the aer flowing through your system that is most likely causing the problem. They fix the aer!

A thorn by any other name...

My name (Ujjwal) is a frequent target for misspellings by people. I've Ujwal, Ujval, Ujjawal, Ujawal, etc. Today's sample is one of the best I've ever seen :)

Considering I was born in Guwahati, I would now only be 500 km off the mark if I claim to be Uizzwal from Aizwal ;)

Brings a smile to my Face :-)

I have no clue how they do that???

It's gonna fight back

The grass is greener!

Found this one outside my college, when I had gone there for some errands. Having been through four years in that college, I completely agree with this sign!
