H1N1 Fun?

I’ve been spending a lot of time working on a new video, so I don’t have a real post. But I can show you a strange sign I came across a few days ago.

I’m not sure what’s going on here. There’s nothing about the vaccine, so are they actually offering swine flu? Or is it to warn you that swine flu is scary like Halloween? Maybe the point that swine flu is fun like Jack O’ Lanterns.

Whatever it is, I doubt this place gets much walk-in business.

I’ve probably walked by this store hundreds of times on my way to the subway, but only today did I take a look at the door.

And I think you have to admit that is the most adorable sign for X-rated DVDs ever.

I assume the X’s being on fire symbolize how hot the DVDs are, but I’m not sure what the birds are supposed to convey. Also, I think it’s a little weird that the sign is right next to one advertising transferring home videos to DVD. I wonder if that’s some synergistic business model of theirs. Surely a store that does passport photos, color copies, VHS transfers, photo restorations and lamination along with selling cell phone accessories, ink cartridges, batteries, watch bands, lotto tickets and porn, has a well thought out business model.
