Love them all, especially the one about the horses! OMG; can you imagine?! 😀
(Don’t quite get why the watch-battery one is funny, though.)

It’s all in how you read it. Whoever made the sign intended “watch” as an adjective, modifying the noun “batteries.” But if you read “watch” as a verb, the meaning changes, and it prompts one to wonder why anyone would want to watch batteries being fitted. 🙂

DUH! Rolling eyes / laughing, hard, at self.
Thank you for your continual patience! I used to say “Must be the blonde hair.” Can’t now that I’ve let it go gray.
(As far as fitting batteries, pass the micrometer! 😉 )

All I can say is you’d have to be pretty hard up for entertainment to watch batteries get fitted. Kind of like watching paint dry, I’m guessing, although I’ve never tried either one. If you want me, I’ll be out on my porch, watching the grass grow. 🙂
