You are probably familiar with my enjoyment of rearranging letters on signs. While most often I do not rearrange anything myself, I totally enjoy the fruits of others' labor.
For example:
Free Firewood ---> Free THE Firewood
Try Our New Big N Tasty ----> Try Our Big Nasty
Now Hiring 15 Year Olds ---> Now Hiring 5 Year Olds
And on, and on... My mom is actually more accomplished at this than I am. She invested in a step stool so that she might reach those letters way high up more safely. ;)
Anyway, my cousin Katie sent me the link to this article. The freaky thing is that Jeremy and I ate last night IN THE SAME DINER as the men responsible for these shennanigans.

I'm all for shenanigans and good grammar, but one can carry it too far, e.g., "correcting" national monuments, etc.
Now, McDonald's signs (or signs in front of churches...my favorite) are a different kettle of fish, entirely. And it's a ladder, not a step stool, just so you know.
