It might have made me smile :)

I couldn't resist it; I had to write a blog post about this sign I saw on campus.
When you come out of the testing center and are walking north along the sidewalk, there's a pathway that branches off and leads downhill. Not far from the top of the path is this sign:
It might have made me smile when I was coming home today.
Not that I think a handicapped person in a wheelchair falling down a hill is funny in any way; that's a little sick and twisted. But the fact that the sign shows someone in a wheelchair at the top of just such a steep hill about to go down is terrible enough to make me chuckle. The visual irony of it made my day.
And let's face it, there isn't usually much to be happy about when you leave the testing center. So the fact that this sign exists exactly in the location that it does makes me smile just a little bit wider :)
