Stop Stop Stop. I have to p** into my pants… Where do you get those pictures from?

When I was a little kid (this is going back to the 1960s, mkay?) the office where my dad worked had this humungous machine that took up half a room. It hummed, it buzzed, it stank, it blinked… and it also made photocopies.

Guess what someone tacked on the wall nearest to it? That notice!!! I don’t think I’ve seen it anywhere since.

@Pete: Travellers love to photograph, especially items of comic value.

@Ian: Really? That is crazy! I wonder where and when it originated from? Maybe this will become my new project…

I wouldn’t be surprised if it came out around the WW2. I’m sure there’s a geek site out there somewhere with the answer.

excellent! us germans and our language would be dead boring without some help
ian’s right… looked for a nicer version on the web for our office and found this reference: http://www.jargondb.org/glossary/blinkenlights (in case you did want to make it your project Miss V)
