For example, soft drink machine stickers read, “This Machine Steals Money” or “Out of Order Again!” For restaurants whose offerings leave something to be desired, you can plaster the waitress or the table with “Hor rible Food” or “Lousy Service” stickers. Other models include “This Movie Rated Blah” for question able cinematic efforts; “My Taxes Paid For THIS?” for examples of government foolishness; “Inept Nerd” for general dissatisfaction with a coworker or friend; and “Filthy Restrooms” for dirty service stations.
