This sign reminds me of that story, "The Emperor's New Clothes". They are assuring you that the un-ordinary (non-existent) popcorn really IS in those apparently empty bags they're selling for $3-6.
Doesn't having the "not" and the quotes make it like a double negative? I think they're trying to confuse people just to get them to pony up $3 or (gasp) $6 for some totally ordinary popcorn.
I have a funny photo with unnecessary quotations, how do I send it to someone that can blog it?

ReplyDeleteI guess calling it "Extraordinary" popcorn would be well too "ordinary"
