Extraneous Quotation Marks, Bethnal Green

What the hell is this person trying to say? All these extraneous quotation marks make this notice lack any sincerity whatsoever. In fact, have a go at this, it’s fun honest – read this sign out aloud placing special emphasis on the quotation marks. Now what do you sound like? Yes that’s right, you now sound exactly like a presenter on T4 interviewing somebody! Which one? Any of them, all of them, who fucking cares.

Failed Pun, Peckham

Following on from yesterday’s image of  ”The Deptford…Cod Fathers” we continue our exploration into the strange correlation between fish and chip shop name punnery and Italian organised crime in popular culture (now there is a sentence I never thought I’d find myself typing). Shit Londoner Chris Young spotted this in Peckham and observes “Codfella’s Fish and Chip shop? Come on guys, it’s not even a proper pun” and he’s right you know. This doesn’t work in the slightest. Considering the wealth of gangster type movies out there I’m sure they could’ve come up with something much better. In the seconds I’ve spent typing this I have already come up with three…

Bream Streets, Public (Sea) Anemomes and The Untenchables.

Okay, I admit they’re pretty much stinkers as well. Can you do better? Comment below with your suggestions….
