London Please Calm the F*CK Down.

(click poster) Earlier this week, the London Metropolitan Police put up this poster all through the Tube. It seems to be working. Actually, it was designed by this guy on his lunch hour, and has since "gone viral," as they say, in the UK. Previously: New London 2012 Olympics logo.
Update: as a commenter points out, it seems to be referencing this WWII poster.

seems a reference to the WWII posters "Keep Calm and Carry On" which used the same layout and fonts.
