According to
DumboNYC, orange and red street signs with
Tom Otterness-ish cartoon characters and unusual messages like "
Fat Zone," "
Life is Too Short," "
Substance Abuse" and "It's Okay to Play With Yourself" (pictured) appeared on posts throughout Dumbo on Friday, the handiwork of street artist
TrustoCorp—notice the winged "T" at the bottom of the sign, her/his signature. As our little neighborhood seems to be constantly crawling with cops and city construction crews, I imagine the signs were probably all gone by this morning, but I will go out and check
right now.
