Is Eat Babo's the next meme stock being shorted?

Shorting stocks is LIFE

wjrii ,

Could be a metaphor, you know. Who knows what, or who, Babo’s is encouraging you to bet against.

FiniteBanjo ,

Oho~, okay, interpreting the spelling error changes the literal meaning of the sign. For some reason I didn't connect the dots on that one until you pointed it out.

I don’t really think it was intentional, but that’s the generous, optimistic interpretation.

intensely_human ,

No reason to get excited. Babo's is the name of the owner. They're not saying to eat baby's.

It's the "to" in the line above that's the problem, I think. Should be "too".

intensely_human ,

They’re not saying too eat baby’s

happy now?

biofaust ,

Ok, I will eat babies and drink Pepsi.
No wait, there is no 'i': I will eat babes and drink Pepsi.

This is the only Babo I know

Life is too short to eat Babo's and drink Pepsi.

MajorHavoc ,

I try not too get to mad about this kind of mistake. Life is, indeed, two short.

Edit: Specifically, about "Drink Pepsi", when "Royal Cola" exists.

Gingerlegs ,

Okay, Satan

MajorHavoc ,

Thank you! Though, in humility, I think I'm a Crawley, at my best.

ReedReads ,

I understand this reference!

Eh, I could care less

@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world avatar

They want you to come in and tell them the sign is wrong. It's weird advertisement.

You give the businesses in this town way too much credit.

Life is to short as eat is to Babo's and as drink is to Pepsi

Life is too short.

Pepsi is NOT okay.

Maybe the restaurant is infested with investment bankers for whom life is indeed to short. Maybe the sign is a secret handshake to tell other investors they're welcome in this joint.

ramble81 ,

Can someone help me with what I’m missing?

astanix ,

To instead of too

ramble81 ,

Ha! Read that over and over and missed that. Thank you!

Kowowow ,

Oh wow I completely removed the "to" in my head

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

What do you have against us baby eaters?

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

The baby eating is fine. The poor grasp of the English language is deplorable.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Drink a Pepsi™ and life will be okay again.

It's to bad that the sign proofers didn't catch it.

ThePowerOfGeek ,
@ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world avatar

That's some low-key trolling there.

I like it.

ThePowerOfGeek ,
@ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world avatar

Nah, they are just saying that to live is to short the market.

TunaCowboy ,

Life is to short to worry about babo's grammar. Have you tried drinking a pepsi?
