thin ice, no swimming

1) If there is any ice, why go swimming?

2) Why does the sign seem to imply that you can go swimming when there is thick ice?

3) Who would swim in a retention pond?

    Notice they say nothing about drowning. Apparently it’s alright to drown.

    How cold and heartless.

    Oh you humans…so self-centered. Not everything revolves around you.

    This sign is obviously meant for us Polar Bears…and our good friends the penguins.

    That appears to be a rather permanent sign. Is the ice always thin? Even in the dead of winter, or the dog days of summer?

    @Conall, good try but we all know polar bears can’t read that, they only read Inuktitut (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuktitut)
