Is this guy's name Pete? There used to be a lot of that exact work over here in the Memphis area abut fifteen or twenty years ago. Misfigure a wall layout and ad the 's on top of the word. Creative layout at it's worst.

It's subliminally advertising a buffet. You get to pick and choose "What to leave in, what to leave out", while stressing over "deadlines and commitments".
