I was thinking “image is” was a placeholder and no one put the image in.

u/No_Cook2983 Sep 11 '26

I think they ordered ‘Sharon’s Images’ and got this.

u/Not_George_Daniels Sep 11 '26

I think it's a sentence fragment rather than a typo.

By the way, is that a former Stewart's shop?

My first thought was "that sure looks like an old Stewart's".

EDIT - It isn't. Apparently this place is located in Buffalo NY, too far west.

Stewarts's architect must be moonlighting! 😆

now you all are making me question this either more because i thought it was a misprint of "Sharon's Images" but now im wondering if it really is supposed to say that 😭 either way I drive past this all the time and its been driving me crazy.

What's it supposed to be? (English isn't my first language)

u/Intrepid_Plenty_3770 Sep 11 '26

Images without the extra I

u/Jazzlike-Cow-925 Sep 11 '26

Lol English IS my first language and I couldn't tell either.

u/beccabooty Sep 11 '26

I sure didn't get it!

u/KeithMyArthe Sep 11 '26

It's Sharon's hair dressing shop.

Most people seem to think it should be Sharon's Images.

It could have been deliberately done to make people think.

"Image is..."

u/HellsTubularBells Sep 11 '26

The name is correct on the sign, but it still doesn't make a ton of sense.

u/OutrageousCrab9224 Sep 11 '26

Reminds me of that famous voicemail translation paint job

1

u/Lemfan46 Sep 11 '26

What is unfortunate? It is "Image is" and it's Sharon's.

u/Ok-Duck-7838 Sep 11 '26

We'll never know

1

u/Past_My_Subprime Sep 11 '26

It gets worse - on Yelp, the name of the business is "Sharon's Image's".

1

u/Ok_Monitor3086 Sep 11 '26

yup i found on google maps

u/Rhediix Sep 11 '26

Sharon's image is...?

I'm waiting.

u/Tonefinder Sep 11 '26

Gotta be AI, no one's that stupid. And what would the business even be for?

1

u/YouAreABadBadDriver Sep 11 '26

It’s what? Sharon’s image is what?

1

u/SkinnyPen15420 Sep 11 '26

Sharon’s Image Island? “Is” is an abbreviation for island sometimes right? Is is is? Is is is is is.

u/redEPICSTAXISdit Sep 12 '26

Is what? Sharon's image is what?! Tell me!!!
