WARNING / TOILET / PAPER / ONLY

Commentary

This is the most reduced form in the collection so far. There is no full sentence, no attempt at courtesy, and no surrounding argument. The toilet lid itself has been turned into the delivery mechanism, which lends the warning a directness that professionally printed signage rarely achieves.
