Don't get it wrong! It has nothing to do with 'flying'
fly-tipping means 'illegally leaving things that you do not want next to a road, in fields, in rivers, etc.'
So the picture tells you what you SHOULDN'T do... 👇👇👇

The man in the picture ☝️☝️☝️ is a 'bill sticker' or a 'bill poster'
It is often against the law to stick bills, or posters, on walls in the city. So, if a bill sticker does this, he will be prosecuted, or officially charged with a crime in court of law.
So the picture says 'Don't stick posters on this wall or you will be called to court!'

You can never really know a language, unless you know about the #culture it comes with. One part of every culture is how people use language to humor 😜 and amuse 😄 each other. What do people say when then want to be funny? How do they tell jokes?
A popular way of being funny in English, is telling "knock-knock" jokes. 🚪✊
Knock-knock jokes have a "call and response" format. That means the teller of the joke (or the punster) and the listener (or the recipient) make a conversation 👥 in order to complete the joke.
The standard knock-knock joke has five lines:
The punster: Knock, knock! ✊
The recipient: Who's there? 😳
The punster: a variable response, sometimes involving a name. 😐
The recipient: a repetition of the response followed by who? 🤔
The punster: the punch line (the funny part at the end of the joke), which typically involves a misusage of the word set up during the response. 😂
They might not seem very funny at start, but once you get to see the point, they can crack you up.

Are you gullible? Well, today's your day!!! 😜
April Fools' Day (sometimes called All Fools' Day) is celebrated every year on 1 April by playing practical jokes and spreading hoaxes. The jokes and their victims are called April fools. People playing April Fool jokes expose their prank by shouting April Fool. Some newspapers, magazines, and other published media report fake stories, which are usually explained the next day or below the news section in small letters.
Iranians have the tradition of "the lie of the thirteenth" which happens on the 13th of Farvardin, which is also today!!
Make sure nobody fools you today!
