Oho~, okay, interpreting the spelling error changes the literal meaning of the sign. For some reason I didn't connect the dots on that one until you pointed it out.
Maybe the restaurant is infested with investment bankers for whom life is indeed to short. Maybe the sign is a secret handshake to tell other investors they're welcome in this joint.
I go on and on, can't understand why I love Babo's; must have a superpower ate 225-thousand meals. Get it calculated, do the math, I ate a thousand meals that made me shit my pants. And for the last 300 months I've had 16 restaurants put me in the hospital; heart go (paddles charge) bump. Where you get your meals?
I heard 93 restaurants say no MSG; 2 bypasses and 10 heart stints. And I'm still gon' yell it every time you see me eatin. What's my favorite word? FOOD! Why they gotta say it like $hort? FOOD! You know they can't clean off my plate, can't hang with the Big Smoke; can't finish that order.

Shorting stocks is LIFE

Could be a metaphor, you know. Who knows what, or who, Babo’s is encouraging you to bet against.

I don’t really think it was intentional, but that’s the generous, optimistic interpretation.

I try not too get to mad about this kind of mistake. Life is, indeed, two short.
Edit: Specifically, about "Drink Pepsi", when "Royal Cola" exists.

Thank you! Though, in humility, I think I'm a Crawley, at my best.

The sign is to short for the other o.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 2y
They want you to come in and tell them the sign is wrong. It's weird advertisement.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 2y
You give the businesses in this town way too much credit.

Ok, I will eat babies and drink Pepsi. No wait, there is no 'i': I will eat babes and drink Pepsi.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 2y
What do you have against us baby eaters?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 2y
The baby eating is fine. The poor grasp of the English language is deplorable.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y
Drink a Pepsi™ and life will be okay again.
It's to bad that the sign proofers didn't catch it.
ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
That's some low-key trolling there.
I like it.
TunaCowboy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y
Life is to short to worry about babo's grammar. Have you tried drinking a pepsi?
ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
Nah, they are just saying that to live is to short the market.
VulKendov@reddthat.com · 10 pts · 2y
Life is to short as eat is to Babo's and as drink is to Pepsi

Life is too short to eat Babo's and drink Pepsi.

Life is too short.
Pepsi is NOT okay.
intensely_human@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 2y
No reason to get excited. Babo's is the name of the owner. They're not saying to eat baby's.
sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y
It's the "to" in the line above that's the problem, I think. Should be "too".
intensely_human@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 2y
happy now?

Is Eat Babo's the next meme stock being shorted?
