well, isn't that special?
What? No specials? That's SO CRAZY!!! Like, three exclamation points crazy!!! Your advertising is just so edgy and in-your-face that I'm going to run right in and buy all the things on that chalkboard!
Oh wait, no I'm not because I just remembered that if I'm interested in purchasing a "cold brewed iced coffee" its probably not because of your witty chalkboard advertisement, its because I want an iced coffee. You're a coffee shop. You have coffee, internet, and light lunch fair. Tell me something I didn't know or get your stupid chalkboard out of my way.

TKO
I'm just putting this out there for your consideration, but if the Somerville Boxing Club's "home" is the Central Square YMCA, shouldn't they change their name to... oh, I don't know, lets see....umm, what about...no... oh! THE CAMBRIDGE BOXING CLUB????
Well, maybe they already had their t-shirts made. And on second thought, I probably shouldn't harass people who punch each other for recreational purposes.
climate: hurricane. or so they say.

But none of them seem very witty to me. I'm having an off day. Someone give me a better caption.

lovin' spoonful
So there I was, chillaxin' in the Brueggers Bagels that's connected to the Shaws, enjoying my rosemary and olive oil squagel (squagels! not your old man's bagels!), when this lady sits down at the next table. I eyed her nondescript Shaws double-bag and didn't think much of it. Maybe she's just another squagel fan, right?
WRONG! SO WRONG!!
The broad had swiped a plastic spoon from the milk-and-sugar station and after extremely carefully opening her recently purchased peanut M&Ms, was eating them methodically, one and a time, WITH A SPOON!!! WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?? THIS IS CRAZY!! THERE WAS A SEINFELD EPISODE ABOUT THIS! WHY AM I SHOUTING? THIS SQUAGEL RULES!
climate: yeah.

bo knows... grammar?
I'm no grammar police (except when I am, like right now) but wouldn't this read better like this?
Great Design
At An Even
Better Price
As written, I'm not sure it makes any sense. Are they saying that usually when design is at a 'better price' its not 'great design'? But we all know that's not true because good design is expensive.
I don't know what you're trying to get at, Bo, but I do know its not working. Plus those rooster coffee mugs in the window are ugly.
climate: its freakin' hot.
