It's spelling and punctuation that are the usual culprits in erroneous signs around us. They're basically harmless and usually just humorous.


I've seen "Doctor on Call" stickers and decals on some vehicles, which for me are often dubious, but it was my first time last week to see the sign below. It was plastered prominently on the windshield of a parked AUV.

What does a Priest on Call do exactly? Administer last rites during emergencies? Perform confessions and baptisms at a moment's notice? Clear the roads! Vehicles give way! Traffic enforcers turn a blind eye! Priest on Call is rushing madly to perform an exorcism! Seems every Pepe and Pilar is trying to beat traffic coding in the Metro. The lengths they go to already borders on the harebrained. Okay, I'll be nice and call them "imaginative."
