I had a quick errand to run today and, while I was out, I saw this sign on a store's window:
And then, of course, that made me want to issue them a spelling citation and inform them that spelling "violaters" would be prosecuted, too. And don't even get me started on the missing period at the end of the second sentence - proofread, people!!
You know, if you're gonna make threats, you should really use spell check - especially before you break out your little letter stickers. Because this sign did not in any way make me fear the proprietors (or perhaps I should say "proprieters") - it just made me get out my camera and then blog about them.
I don't think that's the reaction that they were going for . . .

Forget the security camera - use a dictionary.

One must also wonder why they used a period at the end of the first line, which was clearly not a complete sentence. Perhaps they put it on the wrong line?
