No warnings, just a beer commercial





My brother in law was recently in a beer commerical.  I loved it and am doing my bit towards virality.

Lazy...

This isn't slipping...it's more like sunbathing...  Let's get it together stick people... Fallin' down on the job... Wait that's exactly what you're not doing.

A "Thou shalt not" feast

Went to a park in Birmingham and found a sign with a wealth of stick men hard at work.  Some of them were expected and make perfect sense, like:

No fishing...


No sleeping on a cot 


And Don't pick the flowers.  I get these... no problem, but then they start to get. Confusing....


Ok, no throwing trash, here represented by squares, on the ground...


...but then... no feeding trash to the pigeons?  And why not?  Pigeons are nasty.


Then there was this one, ok no barbecuing...


wait, THIS one is no barbecuing, so what's the other one, no rotisserie? no hibachi?


And then some classics like this one, no debonaire greetings,


And you gotta have the crucial "no steaming dog poop", I am guessing that cold dog poop is fine.  You can't fool me with this one, I know stick heat when I see it from this warning label.

Orange stickmen unite

It's a little known fact that this warning poster is the cause of much consternation in the stickman community.    
While the more brightly colored orange stickmen got nearly as many jobs as the majority regularly colored black stickmen, they were invariably cast as the "fallen ones."  This kind of stigma is common and possibly due to their redish cousins being type-casted for the ever popular  piso mojados.  Regardless, they are still professionals, note the perfect synchronization.

The stickman that started it all

This is the warning label that launched a thousand... well actually... the warning label that launched only one rather lame blog.  Not only is this label hilariously clear in it's meaning.  I am definitely feeling a stay away vibe.  But observe the tell-no-tale stoicism of our stickman hero.  Clearly a professional, used to getting mangled in extra special nasty ways.  One last note, it's interesting to me that although the sign says "keep hands clear" his hands were largely unaffected as they ran through the geared-gauntlet.  I guess "keep elbows clear" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Snap crackle pop effective

It doesn't need words, or explanation.  Some stickmen know their business.

Mini warning

If you're gonna keep all of the DC metro traffic safe you might as well throw down with some miniskirt action.
