That sign is hilarious. They could have just said temporarily removed it and left it at that. Someone has a great sense of humor!

They really did :D I hope that once they've 'revised' the facial expression, they'll test it on some random small children, just to make sure ;)

/is evil.

Think of the children!

That's fantastic. I want to have that person as a co-worker.

I'm now picturing these focus groups of children filling out surveys on whether the new face is scary or not. Hee!

I really really want there to be focus groups :D And researchers ticking the "Children wept with terror" box ;)

LOL! Just the humor of it... all of the snark that contained in that sign. I want one!

It makes me think of a harassed museum worker putting up with complaining parents and know-it-alls 'explaining' why that facial expression just doesn't work.

Lol, that sign really is hilarious.

[magog-83.livejournal.com]

Bwahaha. Trying and failing to imagine the kind of complaints that could lead to that removal.

*g* But that's just teasing; I want to see what the object was, now.
