Welcome to NoSafetySmokingFirst!

For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.

This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.

Instructions unclear, smokes the church.

I think the instructions clearly endorse that action, provided that thou art not in the church when smoking the church.

'Thou not in'

'Shalt smoke church'

Instructions now clear!

“shalt” implies must, so not smoking the church actually would have been a sin.

"People called 'Romanes' they go the house"

I'm pretty sure that's not in the Bible.
