Notice to Japanese Smokers: Stop Acting Like Cool Cowboys [Japrish]

Spotting and photographing funny English signs in Japan is kind of my thing.

I call it Japrish.

Some of my favourite signs are the JR smoking etiquette signs, which sound more like a riddle than a “do not smoke sign”. Aren’t old westerns cool?
