Noticed this gem when I was driving to work this morning. Looks like somebody h4xored the big traffic message sign on Pullen Drive just before Cates. A couple of days ago it was delivering the message: A1L YOU LISTEN UP!
NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN

But today's was even better.



First time I've seen social commentary from a road sign.

It's a mildly amusing "hack".

Very poor execution on the message however. At least "All your base - Are belong to us" would have been somewhat humorous.

my friend changed one to say LICK DONKEY DICK

instead of NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN

he said that they are password protected, but that the pw is just usually taped to the inside of the orange box, or the keyboard.

it has nothing to do w/ being smarter than anyone

i mean, frosh does the same thing, but at least he brings a lot of great content to the board and

99% of the posters, including myself enjoy most of his posts / threads

we cant say the same for you el nacho, everytime you post...its the same shit

I don't like Frosh's post because I know how much of a douche he is in person

therefore I have little or no respect for anything he might say on here

but the content is there. this el nacho character really does seem like a failed attempt at impersonating frosh

The last time Frosh was funny was when I didn't have an account on here.

i noticed that sign the other day, except it said something like "hey you - listen up! signal ahead" or something. i just didn't think the "hey you - listen up" was really official. oh well..got my attention.

ok obviously i didn't read the very first post...so there you go

It may not have been hacked - I read a few months back that the DOT was going to start putting different messages on the signs so that people would pay more attention to them. Then again, I doubt officially they would tell people they are a mess.

Are you kidding? You're basically a self-important fool. Firstly, you're trying to correct the grammar of something clearly intended to be a joke, and secondly, you misinterpreted it to begin with. Here's a hint: 1337 does not follow established rules or grammar and usage. I doubt many people are impressed by your elementary-school English skills.
