Manic Moday--Great Moments In Terrible Protest Signs!

MILD, MILD SPOILER for Daredevil Season 3:

Folks in the Marvel Netflix Universe are unhappy about the government making a deal with Wilson Fisk.

How unhappy?

Wait...what the what?!?!

Well, I mean, props on the calligraphy. And bonus props for the rhyme. Although most would spell it "Tsk-tsk."

But is that in any way an adequate expression of protest?!? Seriously--"tisk-tisk"?!?!?!?

I mean, that sign is the new screen saver on my phone, so don't get me wrong, I love it to pieces.

But it does make you wonder how outraged these people are. "Tisk-tisk" might be the mildest epithet from a New Yorker in 5 decades!!

But wait, that wasn't the only sign:

Well, forgive the blurriness. At least the sign win points for being vaguely clever, if still not particularly outraged.

It does make you wonder what type of overly polite protest signs might show up in this universe for other Marvel villains...

"GO TO YOUR ROOM, VON DOOM!"

"MOLE MAN HAS NO SOUL, MAN!"

"DANG, KANG!"

"KRAVEN IS CRAVEN!"

"MAD THINKER = STINKER!"

"MAXIMUS THE BAD!"

OK, I'll stop now...

Wait, wait, one more:

"BARON MORDO ES MUY GORDO!!"
