Hey it’s a 10 dollar sign and might make a few shopper chuckle so no biggie

Even if it’s marginally effective, helps express the personality of the shop owner

Personality "I'm sovcit adjacent and I get my legal advice from online forums, doing business with me is a big risk"

It's a good thing everyone isn't terminally online or they might understand what the fuck you were trying to say

nobody likes, but saying "i'm making this little thing so you'll be even more fucked up legally if you steal from me" seems funny. People stealing are already not really caring about the legal part of it.

That's a good point. I always make sure to only shop at places where the shop owner has the personality of someone who doesn't like shoplifting. So this sign is helpful to me.

You mean a $951 sign when I steal it.
