Out driving today, I noticed that a nearby subdivision providing a handy shortcut to my home enjoys award-winning status, according to a prominent sign on the grass island at the main entrance.
Turns out the award was for best marketing campaign for residential properties in the $200,000 price range.
Now, how's that for a source of pride and peace of mind?

Unfortunately, as I am sure you are aware, there are not many people able or willing to make the connection of just how unsettling it would be to have that sign on the entrance to their own neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that award is big enough to live in.
ReplyDeleteIt's almost like the developers are bragging about how good they are at sucking people in. I found it unsettling, and I don't even live there.
ReplyDeleteI hope the award was big enough to pay for all the sloppy work that they hope will never be discovered! Shades of Weekly and most of the other builders out there who get these kinds of awards. Hoodwinked is more like it. Maybe it should just say "Gotcha!"
