No catching or giving crabs.
Beware of hippie traps.
Re: Segways -- if you advertised on Kickstarter or otherwise got an art grant, the guys on Segways are probably some of your patrons. Go ahead and mock them if you really want to look like a bigger idiot than they are.

Re: Fast: The Pier needs rules
You have to have a size limit on your catch, or a number limit or a license requirement.
All hippies under 4' must be thrown back. Or used as bait, because we don't want the hippies to get bigger and breed. I'm not sure which.
No more than 2 hippies each (you can't afford to keep more)
Or in the San Francisco Bay they have signs about not eating your catch, because there's mercury and other toxins. Riff off that?

Badger: That was hilarious
Bob: I am known for biting the hand that feeds
. Sorry something about the undecorated segways rolling around the playa really irk me. And something about the handful of people I have seen standing on their segways, watching the man burn, touring the temple or just otherwise being glued to them seems to irk me even more. I'm not a fan of segways, to me they represent a level of elitist lazyness that I cannot and will not encourage.

Re: Fast: The Pier needs rules
People usually don't read an entire long list, so make sure that if people are going to read only 3, they're the MUST KNOWS... Like: Don't dive, don't set on fire, watch for splinters. And then everything else.
Also, if the sign is going to say "rules", then you need to word things as rules. Just to nitpick, two examples:
Also, if the sign is going to say "rules", then you need to word things as rules. Just to nitpick, two examples:
6 is a good rule. It tells you what to do. 8 is not a rule, it's a statement. I'd suggest either re-wording it as a command ("Wear clothes. Or not any at all.") or to put a different sign up with Tips for Enjoyment of this Pier.fbcota wrote:I like that. Just added:

8. Clothing optional.

Re: Fast: The Pier needs rules
Your nit picking can be damned, damned to hell and damned to hell again,... ohh yea we already sent it to the printers.
I think clothing optional is a fine rule. We don't need no stinkin shirts,...they will be stinkin
