Yes, you may need to read it twice for the seasonal alert to stick.

Either the message is aimed at motorists or pachyderms, not both.

Along the Welsh seaside lies Llandudno Pier, jutting 2,295 feet into the Irish Sea.
The monstrosity pictured here was approved and printed at license payer expense.
I felt strangely compelled to add editorial annotations.
If only an equerry had been engaged to proofread!
The title of the post needs a coat of polish, along with an apostrophe and comma.
Um, how would you spell illiteracy? Would you, like me, remember how past generations taught their children to read?
Must I go out on a limb and conclude that graphic design of the logo included proofreading but typesetting for the neon did not?

Yes, I further would adduce that the apothecary side of the house is more learned than the equipment sales team, quod erat demostrandum in the purchase of the signboard.
u/Borsti17 gave us "Candy's and Toys" with https://www.reddit.com/r/apostrophegore/comments/1t829zd/a_lot_to_unpack_here/ (thanks for that) and I had to pile on.
For the record, I am on the woman's side regarding the emotional availability and presuppositions of her beau.
As for the punctuation, where to start?
For starters, all sweeping generalizations are intellectually lazy. ;-)
Even in the accurate singular, this video thumbnail would be garbage.
To be clear, cant is short for cantilever, which relates to hardware configurations, such as television cameras. Consider the instant classic fight sequences of "Boof" in the 1960s live-action incarnation of Batman, starring Adam West.
The missing apostrophe in the body of the message adds insult to injury. I am sure, though, that the young lady could be a real catch as a romantic partner, despite her keyboard incompetence.
Closer examination reveals that the post refers to a single romantic partner, which, in no way, excuses the confusion.

The late, great John Candy was one of a kind. I would defy anyone to try to contend otherwise. However, did he own a decade? Metaphorically, perhaps?
Hail, Scroob!

Yes, I realize that this is unintentionally similar to the joke about lawmen known as The Lone Rangers. Even so, why must encomium include misspelling?
Because lets, let's, its and it's are valid words, they tend to be missed by basic grammar checkers. Still, I feel a bilious pang whenever they are mangled, doubly so here because of the near miss of punctuation.
When I moved past the title from this post on NextDoor.com into the body, I resigned to my fate and hurled.
Not quite the same as "A broken clock is right twice a day" but still.

Anytime we could tap the genius which is the 80s masterpiece Married... With Children would guarantee hours of good karma. Score!

I am a childless quinquagenarian who earns his living off the Internet. Still, I have nothing but respect for the sentiment expressed here, even though the proper abbreviation of the decade would be '80s.

The lazy feline I could excuse, even admire, for the deepest catnap in recorded history.
The neologism in the title of the tread, idgaff, could be forgiven. The absence of the apostrophe on bout could not, as it changes the meaning quite a bit.
Candidly, I could do with a bout of indolence right about now.
