You're a nut. You're crazy in the coconut!

This is one of the greatest things about French poetic truth.

In case you can't read that it says:

Franchement vous exagerez
la vie en communaute demande qu'on se respecte des uns des autres_
Alohrs S.V.P pensez à ceux qui passent derriere vous et prenez
la peine de tirer la chasse d'eau en sortant.

Il y a aussi une brosse W.C. qui ne demande qu'a être utilise.
Je tire la chasse et je nettoie les W.C si je les ai salis, POUR QUOI PAS VOUS?
MERCI

And for those of you who upon whom the humor is lost here is a loose translation:

Really, you complicate things
Community life demands that we respect one another_
so PLEASE think of those who pass behind you and take
the trouble to flush the toilet upon leaving.

There is also a toilet brush which asks nothing but to be used.
I flush the toilet and clean the bowl if I besmirch it, WHY NOT YOU?
THANKS.

This is posted in the upstairs toilet. And it's not exceptional among the number of colorful signs and warnings which are posted about our residence. But this one really is my favorite of all. It's something of a found poem. Hurrah!
