[Bloganuary] Billboards

This post is part of my attempt at Bloganuary 2024. Today's prompt is:

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

I always loved it when a book or exam paper or similar contained a page whose only content was the words "this space intentionally left blank". It tickles a particular part of me: the part that wonders how "keep of the grass" signs get there without anybody treading on the grass, or laughs whenever somebody says something like "nobody drives in Oxford, there's too much traffic."

RenΓ© Magritte's The Treachery of Images.

This is not the famous painting, The Treachery of Images.

So yeah, that.

    After being criticised for lack of effort by an old English teacher I wrote a story which included a page saying "This page intentionally left blank". I was given an A for audacity!
