I figured it out!! It's "shcool, baby!"
Imagine someone from Brooklyn saying this:
"Like, wow that breeze is sure shcool!"
or'
"That clown-red nose sure makes you look shcool!"

But one city worker, who didn’t want to be identified, put the blame on nearby school officials.
“Regardless of who painted it, someone from the school should have been outside supervising, or noticed it by now,” the city worker said.
Admittedly I am not a certified painter or maintenance worker (ahem), but I would think that they would have a work order that says something along the lines of,
"Paint street with #1 Reflective White in block letters 4 feet tall with this word: SCHOOL"
.. right? I agree that a non-dyslexic supervisor should have signed off on the job once it was completed, but to say that a "school official" needed to stand out there while the City's maintenance worker was applying the paint .. no way.

X-NG is the same as F**KING -- the streets in NYC won't let you post actual obscenities. (I've tried.)

Google "shcool" and click on images. Apparently this has happened in multiple cities.
Posted by: Corey Smith | January 24, 2012 at 01:54 PM
ligirl, that is actually an idea that should become a reality.
What say you , bloglits?

I can misravel the dyslexitude and the colloquialinocity, O, but I've learned the hard way that when the subject boils down to matters of remunerativeliness, I want the factually unobfuscated matter and nothing but the factually unobfuscated matter.

Can I borrow some one's Meanie the Blue to English dictionary?

That's funny. Sh + cool. I really think their brain was stuck on something cool and it just came out that way.

I smell a rat.
Well, I smell more than that but Stewie is sitting next to me.
Did anyone notice the the paint job seems less than perfect? Like someone wasn't even using a stencil?
Maybe this was a totally amateur job?
Posted by: Steve | January 24, 2012 at 04:53 PM
Amateur? Steve, Steve, Steve ... y'all're speakin' of New York's Finest ... um ... City Employees ... um ... like ... street cleaners ... garbage persons ... um ...
Nevermind ...

Padraig, you may want to take some Tylenol and lay down after you do that.

MOTW & others: I saw this on the local news tonight. It was not city workers, maintenance or others, who did this, but a privately contracted group paid for by Con Ed who f&*ked it up.
Whether the school administrators, teachers & student should have noticed...the short answer is, they did, but since this is New York they probably just shrugged and laughed and moved on to the next thing, like opossums on the subway.
Anyway, after a year and a half or so, getting the story on the news finally got it repainted correctly.

It was a beautiful summer day, and Flopsy and Tippin set off to pick strawbwrries, happy as opossums on a subway.

During my senior year at a public high school, someone creatively vandalized the sign of the catholic high school in my hometown. So
SAINT FRANCIS
HIGH SCHOOL
became
_AINT FRANCIS
HIGH _C_OOL
The new sign says St. Francis High School.
