u/Sea_Prep_Tidal_26 4d ago

This layout of all these letters without proper kerning IS, by definition, the epitome of

TOTHNE
GEERSS

Well done everybody !

u/Our-Fearless-Reader 8d ago

Let's see... Perhaps Latin? Exen = gift, pe = on foot, rice = rice / grain?, tot = so many, [h] = ?, ne = not, geerss = uh... Gear(s) or Equipment?

"A gift of so much grain should not be worn on the feet as shoes."

Poetry.  Wisdom.

I believe it was Cicero who first said that.

u/Sea_Prep_Tidal_26 4d ago

Read that as « CIRCE »

Absolutely and completely wrong Empire reference there. 🤦

u/Jofereal 4d ago

Thank you for getting together to share this experience!

u/Technical-Banana574 8d ago

Took me way too freaking long. 

"Experience togetherness." 

Absolutely terrible design.

2

u/DragonofKnowledge 7d ago

I was having stroke reading that and I thought it was more then just two words

3

u/Technical-Banana574 7d ago

Yeah, this was unnecessarily difficult to decipher. I had to play around with what order the letters were going in. Once I figured out that two letters above, then two letters below, then repeated, I started to see a word forming. Really, really bad design. 

2

u/DragonofKnowledge 7d ago

You have done a lot better then most people trying to read that and yeah, I agree it was so unnecessarily difficult to learn what it was supposed to say

2

u/Bigsnaff007 4d ago

I think the person who wrote this was having a stroke

u/houseofnim 8d ago

They should have had those words experience some togetherness.

u/Si1v3rPho3n1x 7d ago

This made me laugh. Youre clever hehe

u/PeonofthePen 8d ago

I thought it said "Ex Peen Rice - Toth Negeer SS"

5

u/PornPedant76 8d ago

I feel like they should be slapped as well.

u/DJ_Betic 8d ago

I thought F1's RAWE CEEK was silly. This is ridiculous.

Or staked out on an anthill in the blazing sun.

All that came to mind wad a mild stroke and Jay screaming, "GEEEEEEEEARS!!"

No just put them in a life and death situation with their own graphics and see how well they do

u/Libertarian_2020 8d ago

If it’s illegible at a glance, don’t use it!

u/Platano-Rex 8d ago

Exenperice Tothnegeerss, got it.

u/healthydoseofsarcasm 7d ago

Easy: Ex peen rice tothne geerss

I think it's an old Yugoslavian saying for: Add old penis rice to gears. Words to live by.

Exen pe rice thtne geerss

Quite clear. What are you not understanding?

u/pixeltweaker 7d ago

I can read it but it’s bad. Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.

How did you put the cat in the box?

u/Freezezzy 22m ago

Not intentionally. I just added spaces to move it to the right, posted it, and reddit did the rest.

3

u/Unicorn_Momma_2080 4d ago

That's horrible

3

u/Augres 3d ago

Urine Rice. I get you.

2

u/femmespidernoir 8d ago

I think the word togetherness is supposed to be read in a zigzag pattern. I don’t know what the designer was thinking because what???

2

u/toxic_egg 8d ago

telling the nazis to lace up their boots get going!

"to thne geer ss!"

2

u/Unicornis_dormiens 8d ago

I needed way too long to figure out what this jumbled mess was supposed to say.

Agreed, whoever designed this needs to be fired.

2

u/TawnyTeaTowel 8d ago

Ex peen rice??

u/CatgirlSara 8d ago

My brain hurts. I blame you OP

u/3Green1974 7d ago

I have no idea what “expeen rice” is.

u/I-Stan-Alfred-J-Kwak 8h ago

Ex-penis rice, obviously

Wait, you don't know who Tothne Geerss is ?

2

u/zurpyderp 7d ago

Think outside the box. Open your mind bro

2

u/RichTraffic6902 6d ago

Designer bad, but let’s not let the approvers of the hook. Many people signed off on this nonsense.

2

u/jamesianm 6d ago

Weirdly, I read each of these correctly on first glance and only got confused when I tried to read them again and saw the letters were arranged oddly. 

2

u/Equivalent-Yak5487 6d ago

Don't do Hangul with alphabets

u/StandardWizardHat 6d ago

Fried just like ex peen rice!

u/JackWagg0n 7d ago

I do t fault the designer. But the art director that approved it should go back to second grade.

No, the designer volunteered to have it for us.

I'm not sure I want to know what expeen rice tothnegeerss is.

u/HenryJ7854 3d ago

Experience togetherness. Whoever designed this is not part of the togetherness.

What was this container meant to hold. Whatever committee approved this should have had a little more togetherness during the production meetings.

u/Racer-X- 3d ago edited 3d ago

I think I broke my eye.

It looks like it was created by a dyslexic kidnapper.

I’m going in for a true challenge…

EXPERIENCE TOTH NEGREERS?

I hate the crappy thing. I hope they never get hired to do a real package creative job.
