Picture of the Week: Canadian "I Love You"

Nothing Says “I Love You” Better Than A Dildo, Bank Street, Ottawa
The other day, I was shopping at Herbs & Spice, a food store on Bank Street. I walked out carrying heavy bags and in a hurry to go back home, and fell face to face with this sign from the shop next door, Wilde’s: “Nothing says ‘I love you’ better than a dildo”.
I was sort of taken aback for a second, then it made me giggle like a schoolgirl. Probably the bluntness of the sign mixed with the expectation of corny family-friendly ads for the holiday season. Or my weird French mind—who knows!
I actually went back there on Saturday to snap the picture—I was relieved the sign was still there!

Crap! I did not know what a dildo was and I googled it at work.
Thank You Zhu! Now my employer thinks it knows my little dirty secret!
What a FAIL! LOL!
Ahem… I shall put a disclaimer now
HAHAHAHAHA! This is hilarious!
This store has a sense of humour
Lovely!!
(I would have giggled, too…)
I’m a giggler for these kinds of things.
LOL I love Wilde’s… they always put out crazy stuff like this.
Back during the bus strike a giant sign read “Free lube to OC Transpo drivers so they can go f*** themselves”.
Another time they had a freaking FIST shaped dildo in their windows.…
Oh that’s hilarious! I wasn’t there during the OC Transpo strike, I missed that one.
NOTHING tops Mr. G’s comment… I won’t even try!! And I think you inadvertently tainted his reputation at the office
I know! I feel so bad now
