IF YOU SAY SOMETHING....SEE SOMETHING...

Random thought from August 2008

I saw the “If you see something, say something” sign on the subway, and under the sentence that says “Thank you for keeping your eyes and ears open, and not keeping your suspicions to yourself…” someone wrote “Cause they’re snitches”

The positive I took from that was: they used the correct version of they’re "t-h-e-y (apostrophe) r-e". These were graffiti vandals with good grammar.

Imagine the conversation….“Yo chico! Why you had to use the wrong one!?
It’s not t-h-e-i-r...it’s e-y apostrophe r-e! This one’s for free, but you better start paying me as your spell checker!"
