Welcome to NoSafetySmokingFirst!

For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.

This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.

This doesn't make sense no matter how you read it. What the shit were they going for?

"Our trailers" as the last line sort of makes me think someone forgot to remove a placeholder.

Makes perfect sense if you're the one being advertised to.

High mileage, means high pay because you won't get to go home often

Power only, means owner/operators bring their semi, but not trailer

Our trailers, means you're transporting the companies trailers and don't provide your own
