Seen on the corner of Melrose and Pine, through the window of Bauhaus while waiting in line for a chai latte this morning.

It’s especially effective when it’s flashing right before the light changes. (The bit of strategically placed tape is actually less visible when you see it live.)

I’m sure this isn’t the first time someone’s done this, but it gave everyone in the coffee queue a chuckle.

    I thought the same thing when I first saw this doctored Don’t Walk light: Rock on!!

    But then I realized that the devil horns are made with the thumb ticked IN, holding the middle fingers down against the palm of the hand.

    My new take on the taped hand? It’s the one-handed I Love You in American Sign Language.
