Lexicographical Humor

I just found this nameplate (while looking for something completely different, Sydney J. Harris-style, naturally). It used to be affixed to the outside of the common dictionary library area at a publisher where I once worked, and when that publisher donated those books to the Dictionary Society of North America, I got to take the nameplate, too. Which I can now share with you!
(We never did figure out whether we were supposed to be the deferrers or the demanders of deference ... I suppose we switched roles depending on the context.)
