Stop mocking me...

Why do they put billboards about illiteracy all over the city? I mean, these people can't read. Is it necessary to rub it in their faces. Can you imagine?

"Ah, excuse me."

"Yes?"

"Um...ah, would you mind telling me what that billboard says?"

"What, you can't read that? You're such a retard! Can't read the numbers either. Hey everybody, this guy can't read the billboard. Ha ha ha ha ha ha..."

How embarrassing is that for illiterate people to be humiliated like this all the time. Rather, what should happen is that there should be talking billboards that whisper, something like this...

"Pssst hey you, yeah you, come here...closer."

"Uh, what do you want, talking sign?"

"If you can't read, you should call 1 800 D-U-M-A-S-S"

Much more civilized, don't you think?
