"Your feet hurt because you are kicking so much butt!"
Favorable reaction- yes, I kick butt!! Tell me more nice things!
"Your legs will forgive you...eventually."
"Worst Parade Ever"
Unfavorable. Worst sign ever. Go home- do not pass Go, do not collect $200.
"That's not sweat, it's your fat cells crying."
Unfavorable. I don't even understand the purpose of this sign- is it an awkward compliment? Like, oh, look at all that sweat, that's your fat cells crying, what I'm trying to say is you are looking quite skinny! If I wanted to look skinny there are easier ways to do it than running a freaking marathon, i.e. I'd probably just quit my ice cream habit, thanks for trying though.
"If it was easy, I would do it."
"Staying up all night making this sign was hard too."
"You are NOT almost there." (seen at mile 1)
Unfavorable. I may give you the finger for this.
"The end is near." (Sign held by man dressed as the Grim Reaper at mile 21 of the 2010 Marine Corps Marathon, which was on Halloween)
Favorable. This may result in hugs, or at least a thumbs up.
"Your legs will forgive you...eventually."
Neutral. Thanks for coming out, but you don't even have a clue.
"Don't stop -- people are watching."
"Don't stop -- people are watching."

"Run like you stole something."

Favorable. Not that I need your approval, but yes, I am, thank you for noticing!!
