Achtung!

Saw this written in chalk on the asphalt path through a park near me:

"Achtung! Rauchen kann Ihre Zigarette verkürzen!"

It's a play on the warnings that are plastered all over cigarette packs here (always to the point and in large font, for example, "Rauchen kann tödlich sein," which means "Smoking can kill you"). But in this case it means,

"Warning! Smoking can cause your cigarette to shorten!"

I thought that was pretty cute.
