仙台 えいごの教室

 You know, sometimes we bump into¹ something that we go "What?"² Look at this ….

  What??? Do you get this?

  I saw this sign the other day when I went to the lady’s room³ in a certain supermarket. Right in front of me, there was this sign on the wall, so naturally I just read it. Up to⁴ the third line, as I read it, I thought "Yeah! When the drain⁵ gets stuck, somebody has to clean it up. That’s not fun. Everybody’s got to⁶ be careful."

  Then, at the next few words, my eyes stopped and for a while my brain was trying to figure out⁷ this strange connection between the bathroom and a banana peel.  Really? Are there some people who flush⁸ banana peels? Holy Toledo⁹! That’s unbelievable!  

  I wonder if I looked strange, coming out of the stall¹⁰, giggling.

  The next sign that cracked me up¹¹ was the business sign of some food delivery place. Look! "We have many  things, but sometimes they are not available."

  Do people usually write this kind of thing on their business sign? I don’t think so, but I kind of¹² liked this honest message and this relaxed attitude toward their business. This rather made me feel close to the shop. We don’t have to be too uptight¹³ about life, huh? (^-^)
