a sticker

[solipsistnation]

So, I went through jury duty today, and wasn't picked. Now I'm done, and back at work, hooray!

While being led through the halls of the Worcester courthouse, we passed a group of lockers. On one of them was a sticker:


WARNING: DO NOT SIT ON BODY BAGS


I boggled for a moment, and then attempted to imagine a situation where not only was sitting on body bags a possibility, but it was forbidden, and happened often enough that stickers were required to remind people not to do so.

A google search reveals no retailers selling these stickers.

Maybe you saw: "WARNING: DO NOT SPIT ON BODY BAGS"

("Take that, you worthless snitch!")

On the wall above the urinals in the men's room in the building where my father worked when I was a kid, there was a neatly engraved plastic sign (of the type one saw all over the building denoting whose office a given room was, etc.) reading authoritatively:

DO NOT EAT
THE BIG MINTS

We never could decide whether that was the guy with the signmaking device feeling a bit silly one day, or something put up because someone had actually attempted such a feat and then sued the company for not warning him that it wasn't a good idea.

Maybe it's a warning against sitting on empty body bags? Don't want to tamper w/ the evidence, ya know?
