ORDER MATTERS

I drove by a sign on the wall on the side of a bar a couple of weeks ago and, unfortunately, I didn't have time to snap a picture. Here is what the sign said:

"Have a beer and stop in."

Hmmm... Does that mean I should have a beer before I come to the bar? Isn't that why they'd want me to stop in the first place - to buy a beer?

I think they meant "Stop in and have a beer." The moral of the story? Sometimes order matters. Make sure you are not telling people to do the opposite of what you actually want them to do. Click here to see another similar blog post on this topic.
