Default Something's Wrong

I have an idea for a challenge!

Everytime you see something broken/wrong, post it in here for people to see, and give a short description about it and what's wrong.

For example:



I saw this picture in Washington, DC, next to the capitol. Aparently, the US government is too secure to let you stand--they could get the suspicion that you're a terrorist! Geee... The government dosen't let you do anything these days.

I like taking photos in cemeteries but really hate it when I see a toppled over gravestone. Most definitely wrong.....

Forest Hills Cemetery

DSC05546 (Oxford Street upside down sign)
Apologies for the street sign blocking part of the upside down pizza shop sign, I barely had time to get the camera into ready mode before we nearly drove by.

Those signs are all over DC. MD and VA - and they have been around for years - even b4 9-11. Standing is when you park your car with the engine off, but you remain in your car. Idling is when you are in your car but the engine is on or you are not in your car and the engine is on. Parking of course is if you are not in the car and the engine is off.

All of the signs have to be really clear b/c as you may know, DC is filled with lawyers! lol

I know that it means... But first glance, it seems like just standing up, not sitting in your car.

Huh?!?

This sign still has me scratching my head. Does a church really need a sign like this?!?
