Oh man. Desperate need for a hyphen.

 
Comment by j.

Hyphen? I think a simple apostrophe would fix everything.

I guess they were charging extra for hyphens at the sign shop. ;~D

Comment by Louise F. Rhodes

Yeah, but do they charge for spaces??! lol :p

I say if they aren’t using a space, then it would look like kid sexchange… which is probably not what they want.

looks as if the E and the X are just edited in with paint or something. photo fail.

Comment by Louise F. Rhodes

What kind of place would be called Kids Change?

Comment by Sarah

That is really amusing. Who ever was putting the sign up must of been smoking something, he.

Its not edited, or else ver well edited, because the E and X have shadows on the wall behind them

Comment by Z

You do realize how easy that is to add with Photoshop?

 
 
Comment by Alex

Kid Sex Change! hahahahahahaha
a space is needed.

 
Comment by J

they could have made kids possessive as in “kid’s exchange”, but either way there should be a space

Comment by Louise F. Rhodes

Well, it’d be “Kids’ Exchange”, but yeah.

The same thing happens with “Experts Exchange”, or rather, http://www.expertsexchange.com. But there can neither be a space nor a ‘ in a URL, so that isn’t their fault.

Just because it isn’t their fault doesn’t mean it’s not funny.
With the sign, they could have gotten a hyphen, or a space, or even an apostrophe, if only to make it not look like that. Yes, I am aware an apostrophe would make it a different FAIL, but at least it would be a standard apostrophe fail and not what it is now.

Comment by Louise F. Rhodes

It wouldn’t be an apostrophe fail, it is now though! It SHOULD be “kids’ ….”

Nah, I bet that the spaces were too much that day. haha ;)

 
Comment by Eric

Just to point out, there are several post fails for this picture.

Anyway, say if they did add a space, what kind of store is a Kids Exchange? Do you exchange your kids for new ones?

Comment by Louise F. Rhodes

Precisely.

Should be “Kids’ Exchange”

 
 
Comment by Creeper

NOW THAT is bad…..

Wow….

HAH!
I wonder if its still in business

 
Comment by Ben

SNL… an album cover vs. anal bum cover… or better yet, therapist vs. the rapist.

 
Comment by chacharles

this should be “space fail”

 
Comment by Bryan

I think “epic fail” describes this better than space fail. Sure, it is a “space fail,” but it is of epic proportions.

 
Comment by Michelle

The photo wasn’t edited. There should be a space. Kids Exchange is a consignment store for children’s clothing.

 
Comment by lydia

hahahahahahahahaha!!!!
need….. air!

 
Comment by DekuLink

“must of been smoking”

…Must HAVE been smoking. Or better yet: must’ve.

“Oh man. Desperate need for a hyphen.”
(I’m so goin’ to hell for this….but,)
Did you say hyphen or hymen?…Me = no class

 
Comment by daddy00

I thought about the hyphen/hymen thing too. Glad I’ll have company in hell.

 
Comment by Sçium

For all of those people saying only apostrophe: Does Kid’sexchange seem any better? It only seems like it would magnify the FAIL.

Kid’s Exchange is laughable, still.

If only it was KID SEX EXCHANGE….

 
Comment by Sçium

I’d prefer a PROFESSIONALSEXCHANGE over a KIDSEXCHANGE if I was forced into one or the other

 
Comment by Jevanyn

Bloody sign company changes full one-letter price for little apostrophe. And spaces cost extra because they’re invisible!

Comment by Robert

The saddest part is the number of people involved. The business owner, the guys who put up the sign, the the guys who designed the sign, etc. You’d think at least one person would have thought “Hmmm, not good.” Even sadder, the owners left the sign up there.
