Answer to What is Wrong With This Photograph? Part 300

While taking a walk during a rainy day in Brisbane, I happened to pass the corner of George Street and Margaret Street only one block northwest from the Queensland Parliament and the City Botanic Gardens when I took the photograph shown above of a traffic control box on which one side instructs NO POSTERS while the other side is missing the word NO — presumable because some mischievous scoundrel likely peeled that part of the pressure-sensitive adhesive decal off of the box..

Favorite answer and comment by derek: “I must say in jest that everything is wrong or, at least, upside down in Oz due to its southern hemisphere location!

“The photo has several oddities. The biggest one is the traffic box where posting is forbidden on one side but not the other side. That other side reads ‘posters’. There, someone, possibly an official, has posted a poster noting that bill posters will be prosecuted.

“Another oddity is that the parking sign is very confusing. The taxi zone is extremely short, only the distance between the two signs, which may be less than one car length.”

  1. There are several things wrong. One is an overprint which obscures “62 degree Hilton Garden Inn” in View from the Wing and “Airplane Art – easyJet Switzerland Airbus A320 at Hamburg Airport” in Economy Class & Beyond.

    Another is that, sorry to say, “Your Mileage May Vary” is not really required reading for frequent flyer as the Boarding Area tagline reads. That blog, unfortunately, practices censorship like the People’s Republic of China or North Korea. They often do not publish my very benign comments or alter them. That is really bad behavior. One of the two bloggers (possibly both) are insecure and bullies. I wish they acted normally. I do not know why they are like that.

    An example of their censorship is their review of Din Tai Fung restaurant recently. The article said they had difficulty using chopsticks to eat rice or cabbage. I merely suggested that they pick a small bunch of rice then, for the last bits, just push them in a pile then use chopsticks. For the cabbage, just grab it with chopsticks and bite. They apparently were greatly offended or psychiatrically insecure and censored it. That is very Trumpian behavior, being offended.
