[Noisebridge-discuss] Faucet Warning Sticker

[Ceren Ercen]

If I see one of these at NB I'm going to do-ocratically slap a "irrational
scaretactics bullshit" sticker over it. or just remove it, because more
defacement to cover up defacement isn't helping. And Avery paper labels
leave crap all over the stick site.

I side with the dentists on this.
