The stop sign is one of the top staples in global graphics in da world. Everyone knows what that red octagon is with white writing on it. Everyone in the world knows that you should never write on the front of a stop sign. Always write on the back. But if you’re going to write on the front of the stop sign, write something terribly clever. Terribly, terribly clever.
