Today’s topic and photo are courtesy of Travis, a student in the SCAD writing department. He discovered this sign on a printer in the Jen Library. Some students say it has been there for a couple of weeks.
Here’s my beef with this sign: the word “utilize.” What did the word “use” ever do to anyone? “Utilize” is like pearls on a pig. Pointless. “Use” is a fine word; there is nothing wrong with it. That’ll do, Pig. That’ll do.
And don’t get me started on “supersize” as a verb. Damn you, McDonald’s.
Oh man. I’m in the library right now and saw the sign as I headed upstairs, but I didn’t actually read it. Ugh. 😦

At least the handwriting is nice.
