The Washington Post has a feature called the Style Invitational, in which readers are encouraged to make humorous or snarky contributions to a weekly topic. This time readers were challenged to come up with tourism slogans for various countries. Some of the better ones:
France: Visit, If You Must. (Sigh.) (Martin Bancroft, Rochester, N.Y.)
China: Come Visit Your Money (Ira Allen, Bethesda)
Denmark: Oh, So Nothing’s Rotten in YOUR Country? (Brendan Beary)
England: We Couldn’t Beat the Patriots Either (Bruce Evans, Arlington)
Germany: Genocide Free Since 1945! (Cy Gardner, Arlington)
India: For More Information Press 1 (Matthew Morris, Rockville, MD)
Iran: We’re Gonna Party Like It’s 999 (Brendan Beary)
Mexico: A Little Less Crowded Every Day (Dan Milam, Paducah, Ky)
Qatar: Wish U Were Here (Barry Koch)
Now it’s YOUR turn. . .
