Why Are Londoners Texting with an Inanimate Signpost?
Some are even asking the (surprisingly jerkish) signpost for a date.
You'd think it'd feel crappy to be romantically rejected by, of all things, an inanimate metal signpost. But one spurned woman in London took it pretty well, responding to the street fixture: "<3 signpost."
OK, some context for this surreal conversation: Recently, a big placard appeared next to a signpost in London with nothing on it but the number "07580491887." People who were astute (or bored) enough to call it reached a man's voicemail, stating in an annoyed tone: "Hello, you've reached a signpost. I'm very f---ing busy at the moment. ... So if you'd like to leave a message after the beep, please do so."
