This sign pairs Mark Twain’s famously unimpressed expression with the line comparing politicians to diapers: both should be changed often, and for the same reason.

One small historical complication makes it even more interesting: the quote is widely attributed to Twain, but researchers have found no evidence that he actually said it. It appears to have entered circulation much later. In other words, it is a very good political joke wearing a fake mustache and borrowing Mark Twain’s reputation.
