Handwritten Posters

Posted by Angus Cheng on Friday, March 11, 2022

Yesterday I was wandering around outside my house and noticed these handwritten posters pasted on the outside of a pet store. This looks pretty juicy! I don’t know a lot of the characters in the poster, so I used CantoRead to extract the text and create flash cards for it. The poster includes someone’s name and phone number which I’ve removed.

My thoughts

Pretty interesting, I wonder what the creator of the poster is trying to achieve with this poster. Perhaps they want random people on the street to harass this guy on WhatsApp? I don’t think anybody would be bothered to do that though. I personally don’t feel motivated to do that. Perhaps they just want to embarrass the person in the poster. Will that be enough to pay back their loan? Who knows.
